Summary

Description
English: Westwood railway station (site), Yorkshire
Opened in 1854 by the South Yorkshire Railway, later part of the Manchester Sheffield & Lincolnshire Railway, on the Blackburn Valley line from Sheffield Victoria to Barnsley (Stairfoot). This station was rebuilt in 1876 by the MSLR when the track was doubled, but closed in 1940. View north west towards Birdwell & Hoyland Common and Barnsley. This viewpoint would have been on the track between the two platforms with the main buildings on the right and an unusually tall signal box to the left of the track in the distance. It was very isolated with only a few collieries and some rows of terraced housing in the vicinity, all of which have also disappeared. The area is now within a country park.
