Summary edit

Description
English: Route of dismantled railway And site of the former Ballingham Station. This is part of the former Hereford, Ross & Gloucester Railway, east of Carey. In 1862 the line was amalgamated with the Great Western Railway and was later used as a guinea pig for its programme of gauge conversion, being one of the first to adopt a conversion from broad to standard gauge. There were initially two stations between Hereford and Ross - Holme Lacy and Fawley. Ballingham and Backney Halt were added at a later date. The railway was closed in 1964. The private house on the right now stands on the site, called appropriately, Station House.
