The Severn Valley Railway
The Severn Valley Railway system has been bewitching and entertaining visitors ever since the mid 60s, when it was saved from the scrap heap by a determined group of local rail enthusiasts.
Highley Station is one of the best stops on the line. Firstly, it is home to the Engine House, the railwayās must see Visitor Centre, where you can get up close and personal with marvellous locomotives of all sizes. And even better, the station is the shortest of walks way from the Ship Inn, where you can round off your trip with a drink and lunch or dinner.

An oasis of peace and tranquility on both sides of the river, the Severn Valley Country park is the perfect setting for a family day out. With childrenās playgrounds; nature and adventure trails for walking a cycling; and even a couple of bird hides. The park is only a short drive to and from the Ship.
