Padiham

Padiham station closed to regular passengers services in 1957 but summer excursion trains continued to call here until 1964. The two platforms were situated just beyond the bridge but were swept away many years ago. The goods yard, now awaiting redevelopment, was in the area to the left of the station. The rails from Rose Grove to Padiham Power Station were only lifted recently to create the cycle path shown here in this view looking west towards Great Harwood.
