Gornal Halt railway station

Gornal Halt was a small railway stop on the Wombourne Branch Line.[1] It was opened by the Great Western Railway in 1925 and closed in 1932. The halt served the nearby village of Gornal Wood. The railway passing through the site remained open until 1968 and the trackbed has since been converted into a public walkway.
