A new branch line opened from Lapworth via Rowington to Henley-in-Arden on 6th June 1894 taking the railway to Henley for the first time.
Paul Baker, a Rowington & Lapworth local history researcher, will be giving a talk about the amazing story of the construction of the branch line that took more than 30 years to build but ran for only 25 years.
