Wenfordbridge
(1934 - 1966)
The hamlet of Wenfordbridge was the furthest outpost of the LSWR from London Waterloo. It opened on September 30 1834 as part of the Bodmin and Wadebridge Railway and changed very little until
closure in 1966
There were three sidings for loading and unloading goods, predominantly coal inwards and stone out from local quarries, basic manpower being supplemented in 1926 by the Southern Railway installing a five-ton capacity gantry crane spanning two of the sidings. A fourth siding continued on to the De Lank quarries
The layout was altered in 1922 by the extension of one of the sidings towards Wenford in order to create a run-round loop, but there were no other changes until the link to the quarry and one of the sidings were closed on October 31 1966. These were removed in 1967 although the De Lank rails remained beyond the road
