Remains Of Charlesfield Halt

Uploader's Comments

Opened in August 1942 for workers at the nearby Charlesfield Incendiary Bomb Munitions Factory, the halt had wooden platforms overhanging the embankment. In this view of the location of the down platform, a wooden post remains. Several other items in the area look to be connected with the former halt. The halt was last used in 1959 and closed completely two years later. For further information, refer to http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/c/charlesfield_halt/index.shtml
