All aboard

No trains have passed this way since 1964 when the station closed under Beechings axe. Holmsley station opened in 1847 and was known as 'Christchurch Road' until 1862 when it took its current name. Although the platform at Holmsley has seen no action in 47 years, it looks like with a little clearing back, it would be ready for action again. To my memory it has changed little in 30 years, other than the trees, it used to be far more open.
