DescriptionNew Passage railway station (site), Gloucestershire (geograph 6975061).jpg |
English: New Passage railway station (site), Gloucestershire Opened in 1863 by the Bristol & South Wales Union Railway, later part of the Great Western Railway, this station was at the landward end of the 500m long railway-carrying New Passage pier. Passengers from Bristol had ferry connections to Portskewett, for onward train connections to Cardiff etc. This station closed in 1886 at the same time as the pier, on the same day as the Severn railway tunnel opened. View south east towards Cross Hands and Bristol. The station was just to the right of the hedge, somewhere near the parasol. To the left was a railway turntable, behind where the modern house now stands. The stub of the pier is immediately behind the camera position - see ST5486 : New Passage Pier railway station (site), Gloucestershire. |
