Worcester and Hereford Railway, 1852
Worcestershire
Below is a list of landowners and occupiers who lived on the proposed route of the Great Western Railway in 1852. The book the list was compiled from also provides details of the properties involved, and who owned the cottages, farm land, &c.Editorial note: I don't know what the book referred to as the source of this transcription is, but would guess it's a manuscript source, as there are queries over interpretation of surnames, and references to "Farington" should (I think) read "Tarrington". Many of the places mentioned are in Herefordshire, and (obviously) lie along the route of the present Worcester to Hereford railway line]
