Withington Station, on the former GWR route from Hereford to Worcester. Open in 1955, but closed before the Beeching cuts of the 1960s. The line is still open, and serves Ledbury, Colwell, Great Malvern, Malvern Link and Worcester Foregate Street. There were eight other stations, most closed by Beeching.

The Tile works and adjacent fields/orchard are now a business centre.

I live in Phoenix, AZ and the gray and yellow bathroom tile in in my 1952 built home have Thynne and England on the back. They must have been made in this tile factory in Withington, England!
