Blaenavon Low Level railway station


Blaenavon Low Level railway station was the northern terminus of the Monmouthshire Railway and Canal Company line from Pontypool to Blaenavon in Monmouthshire, Wales.

History

The station opened in 1854, along with the rest of the line from Blaenavon to Pontypool. The GWR "lower line", which ran along the valley floor to Blaenavon Low Level, closed on 30 April 1962, a year before the Beeching I report. A number of passenger lines in Monmouthshire were closed around this time due to falling passenger numbers.

Today

Nothing visible remains of the station; the site has been used for housing.
