The Bridgnorth Cliff Railway, which has ferried people from Low Town to High Town for more than 130 years, had to be closed before Christmas after structural issues were found with a retaining wall at the top of the attraction.Since then, uncertainty has grown as to who owns the retaining wall and is responsible for paying for the repairs.
Mayor of Bridgnorth, Councillor Karen Sawbridge, told around 50 residents at the Community Hall in Severn Street that the council was working on addressing the ownership issue"as a priority". "The ownership situation is very complex, dating back to 1892 when the railway opened, and there are various lease agreements that affect the area."
