GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line

Yardley Wood Platform: gwryw525

View looking in the direction of Trittiford Road showing Yardley Wood station's booking office built at road level on Highfield Road bridge. This photograph was part of the series taken of the stations along the North Warwickshire line on or about the time it opened in 1908. The bridge in these Edwardian days only carried a country lane yet very quickly the railway attracted new developments resulting in the urban sprawl we know as Yardley to day.
