Christian Malford
There was once a timber-built halt here which provided a railway service for the village between 1926 and 1965. The Beeching cuts did away with it. The village has since grown quite considerably, though not enough to justify a train stop yet. Even Corsham, a much more populous village some ten miles down the line from here, and which also lost its railway service to Beeching's vandalism, cannot breathe life into their ambitions to restore trains to their community.
