Bromley Halt Railway Station

Bromley Halt was a small railway stop on the Wombourne Branch Line. It had very poor patronage and, along with the rest of the line's passenger stations, was closed just seven years after its introduction by the Great Western Railway in 1925. The halt served the communities between Pensnett, Wordsley and Kingswinford. A portion of the line remained open until 1994

between Pensnett Trading Estate and Kingswinford Junction. The line from Bromley Haly to Kingswinford Junction has since been mothballed.

Bromley Halt ran alongside the Stourbridge Extension Canal, which itself was eventually removed. Only two platforms and a single line from Bromley Halt to Pensnett Halt and Kingswinford Junction remain.
