About this image
The old station building was converted by the Directors of Breedon and Cloud Hill Limeworks Ltd for the Company's use. The view is looking north west from the bridge on the Breedon to Isley Walton road, towards Wilson. The station was reached via a track from the Breedon side of the bridge. During the 1960's the building was occupied and the single-track line in use. By the 1990's the railway had been closed.
Since this photograph was taken further restoration and extensions have been added and it is now a luxury bungalow. The old station building is still contained within extensions to it, however the old station building is now unrecognisable.
