Wilpshire signalbox

A4 4498 Sir Nigel Gresley passes the box with The Salopian tour on 16/5/1981.The station was closed in the 1960s and the box was obviously out of use when this was taken but I cannot find any info on the actual closure or demolition dates online.Houses were built nearby so when passenger traffic was re-instated on the line a new station was opened a bit closer to Blackburn
