LMS Route: Rugby to Wolverhampton
Stechford: lnwrstfd4481
An updated version of an 1841 map showing the bridge
crossing the River Cole just prior Stechford station. The outline of the land
being purchased for the construction of the Aston to Stechford line is seen
immediately above. Hand written notes with condition of the brickwork. The
above map was provided by Russell Burridge who copied two huge 4ft x 2ft
folders showing in detail the route as surveyed in 1841 by Binns & Clifford
of Birmingham, and updated by F Wood of Rugby in 1863 and then by others up
until circa 1875.
