All Stretton Halt Railway Station

All Stretton Halt was a minor railway station on the Welsh Marches Line between Shrewsbury and Church Stretton in the English county of Shropshire.

History

Opened by the independent Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway, the line through All Stretton became a joint Great Western Railway and London, Midland and Scottish Railway line during the Grouping of 1923. The line then passed on to the London Midland Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. The station was then closed by the British Transport Commission.
