Brockmoor Halt railway station

Brockmoor Halt railway station

Brockmoor Halt was a small railway stop on the Wombourne Branch Line. It suffered from 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 small town of Brockmoor, which is now a part of the Brierley Hill area.

In fact, Brierley Hill railway station was closer to the town's small High Street than the halt named after it.
