A short video to see what has been happening on the site of the Clowne South railway station. A disused abandoned site for many years until recently when site clearance began.
But what is happening at the site? Is it in the process of a restoration project?
The station was opened by the Lancashire, Derbyshire and East Coast Railway on its Beighton Branch in March 1897 as "Clown". It was closed to regular timetabled passenger traffic in September 1939 although Summer Weekend excursions continued until 1964.
On to of the old trackbed is the booking hall. . The cutting through which the Clowne South line ran has been infilled and lies buried under the road that leads to Tesco and the new roundabout. The station building was once a bank, but is now a beauty shop.
