What is recorded here
This blue commemorative plaque records: Henley-in-Arden-Station The Great Western Railway opened Henley-in-Arden station, in 1908, on its new line to Stratford-upon-Avon and Cheltenham. The station changed little until it became unstaffed in 1992. The buildings on the northbound platform were demolished in the early 1970s, but the southbound building and canopy remained out of use until they were restored in 2023 by, and for the use of, the community.
Henley-in-Arden Station, opened in 1908 by the Great Western Railway, served as a key transport link to Stratford-upon-Avon and Cheltenham until its unstaffing in 1992; restored in 2023, it remains a vital community asset.
