This part of the Stour Valley line dates from 1865 and survived for
102 years; the Saffron Walden branch followed a few months later.
From the 1920s, both lines fought a rearguard action against road
competition. Busy again during the Second World War and for a short
period afterwards, both lines benefitted from new diesel motive
power by 1959. By then, the writing was on the wall for both lines,
despite Haverhill being designated a London overspill town.In this
volume, we look at the line between Clare and Shelford, as well as
the Saffron Walden branch. Stour Valley Railway Through Time Part 2
takes the reader on a tour of both lines showing through old and
contemporary photographs the history of the stations on the lines
over the last forty-four years. The remnants from Clare westwards
and the Saffron Walden branch are explored fully, showing some
pleasing sites as well as modern developments.
