Redbrook on Wye Station, Gloucestershire
This scenic image of Redbrook on Wye Station shows it nestled into the bottom of the Wye Valley. Just to the left of the photograph, on the other side of the bushes, runs the river Wye. The station won many awards for its gardens and climbing roses; and the home-made chairs standing along the platform show a thrifty use of the abundance of wood that was available around this small station located on the edge of the Forest of Dean.
The station opened in 1876 and closed in 1959

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the picturesque Redbrook on Wye Station, nestled harmoniously at the bottom of the enchanting Wye Valley in Gloucestershire. The station's idyllic location is further enhanced by the presence of the river Wye, gracefully flowing just beyond a lush thicket of bushes to the left of this image. Renowned for its meticulously maintained gardens and exquisite climbing roses, Redbrook on Wye Station garnered numerous accolades throughout its existence. A testament to resourcefulness and ingenuity, homemade chairs crafted from an abundance of locally sourced wood grace the platform, exemplifying a thrifty approach that was characteristic of this small station situated on the fringes of the Forest of Dean. Opening its doors in 1876, Redbrook on Wye Station served as a vital transportation hub until it sadly closed its operations in 1959. This snapshot immortalizes not only a moment frozen in time but also pays homage to an era when steam locomotives traversed these tracks with purpose and passengers embarked upon journeys filled with anticipation and wonder. Redbrook on Wye evokes both nostalgia for days gone by and admiration for nature's beauty intertwined with human craftsmanship. It stands as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there are places where history lingers delicately like whispers carried by gentle breezes along riverside stations such as this one.
