GWR Route: Alcester to Hatton Junction
Bearley Station: gwrb439
Looking towards Hatton along the up platform with the main
station building located on the up platform and the goods shed on the left.
This 1950s view shows the station little changed except for the oil lamps being
replaced by electric lighting although apparently re-using most of the original
lamp posts. Until the GWR opened the North Warwickshire line all traffic
originating from Stratford Upon Avon, and further south-west, to Birmingham was
routed via the line running through Bearley. Even after 1908 the GWR ran trains
from the West of England via this line a practice continued into BR days.
