Broomlee

Originally opened by the Leadburn, Linton and Dolphinton Railway in 1864 as West Linton, the name change to Broomlee occurred in the late 1880s. The station nonetheless continued to be described in timetables as 'Broomlee for West Linton' until its closure in April 1933. The view is south west over the site of the level crossing on the B7059 (Station Road) to the east of the village in December 2004 with the platform on the left and the now 'filled-in' canopy area clearly discernible.
