Friden Goods Yard railway station

Friden Goods Yard railway station was a minor railway station located on the Cromford and High Peak Railway near the village of Friden in Derbyshire. Located on a line mostly used for mineral and quarry traffic. It opened to passengers in 1855 and closed in 1876 due to relatively but not uncommon low usage. The goods station then closed in 1967 along with the rest of the line. And today, nothing remains of the goods yard or the passenger station. The trackbed now forms part of the High Peak Trail.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
