Newland East signal box (GW, 1900) The 1900-built Great Western Type 7A signal box, Newland East was named Stocks Lane between 1929 to 1943.

Slightly further towards Great Malvern there was a Newland Weest signal box that was closed and demolished in the early 1960s. It was opposite the Newland gasworks and controlled a number of sidings that also saw use as PW sidings into the 1980s after the closure of the gasworks control of which changed to the East box Keywords: Newland East signal box
