Summary edit

Description
English: Trading Estate The Trading Estate is next to the old railway built in 1908 to transport basalt quarried on the Brown Clee to join the main line at Cleobury Mortimer 12 miles away. Quarrying finished in 1936 when the basalt was exhausted. With the outbreak of war in 1939 an Admiralty munitions depot was established on the site. This remained in use until 1965 when the railway also closed. The site was briefly used again in 1967 and 1968 by the American Army when they were forced to vacate their bases in France.
