Harborne Walkway

The Harborne Walkway is based on the Harborne Railway. That was a short railway branch line that connected the city centre of Birmingham, England with the outlying suburb of Harborne. The bridge that carried the railway over Park Hill road has survived, and now forms the start of the walkway. Most of the bridges that carried roads over the line (e.g. Woodbourne road, Hagley road) have also survived. Discarded sleepers can be found alongside the walkway. Although none of the stations survive, the name plate from Harborne signal box does, and can be found in Harborne library.

After Harborne station closed, the site was cleared and redeveloped. Frensham Way was built on the site, and now there are no relics that suggest the site was once a railway station. The only hints to the site's previous use are "Station Road", and a housing development called "The Sidings",which was built recently on the site of the old turntable.
