Newland Halt opened on 18th March 1929 on either side of a level crossing to the east of Malvern Link station on the route to Worcester. Later it served sidings and a permanent way depot (home to PWM650 for many years).
Newland Halt closed on 3rd April 1965 but the signal (Newland East) remained open to serve the Stocks Lane Level Crossing.
One platform was to the left of this photo. The site of the permanent way sidings is in the middle of the photograph on the right hand side of the line beyond the signal box.
The very fine Newland East signal box.
The Worcester bound platform was on the left of this picture. There was formerly a siding on the right of this picture as can be seen in this photograph from 1966.
All photographs taken by Andrew Smith on 30th August 2001.
