Dist:0.3km north<br/>The lofty tunnel cross-section here is not typical of most of the tunnel. This has a much reduced bore, and there is an abrupt step in height part-way through.

Dist:0.5km north<br/>Since taking this picture the pub has been abandoned. The last time I passed it the roof was missing and it appeared to have had a major fire which seems to have totally destroyed the place. Update - was informed today 08 Aug' 2008 that this place no longer exists as it is now just a pile of rubble.

Dist:0.5km north<br/>Pulling into the station with a Stourbridge and Worcester bound train, the curve of the platform can clearly be seen. Off to the left, there was no signs of former platform for trains that once went south towards Halesowen and. However it was still possible to see the entrance to tunnel under High Haden Road. Leaving the station and walking north, it was also still possible to trace and walk on remnants of the old line to Bumble Hole and Dudley.
