Station site today

All evidence of the former station site and trackbed have been wiped away with redevelopment in the area and the Wednesfield Way from Neachells Lane towards Bentley Bridge Retail Park utilizes some of the trackbed. All evidence of the railway has long vanished other than the bridge supports to the north west although they now form a canal and pedestrian walkway.
