Brockweir Halt was a request stop on the former Wye Valley Railway. It was opened to the public on 23 September 1929, it closed in 1959 when passenger services were withdrawn from the line. It was situated just north of Brockweir bridge. Nothing now remains of the trackbed because of the realignment of the A466.[1]
