Hixon

Travel Guide

Approaching crossing at site of Hixon station, 1995 View westward, the station (unstaffed Halt since 20/7/31, closed 6/1/47 when local services ceased) had been on the left: ex-North Stafford Stone (to right) - Colwich (to left) loop used by London Euston - Manchester through trains running via Stoke-on-Trent and electrified in 1965-66. There was an RAF Airfield close by and the line was frequently blocked by crashing aircraft during World War Two, but the site is famous for the extraordinary accident of 6/1/68 when an express crashed into a low-loader creeping across the level-crossing carrying a 120-ton electrical transformer.

Hotel is nothing to look at from the outside, lots of maintenance work going on inside, car park difficult to find and not many spaces. Staff were great, friendly and helpful. Room was nice, it was a new refurbished one. Bed and sofa bed comfy, WiFi was hit and miss. We had a problem with a leak ...

There was no hot water on the first night when we checked in at 9 p.m. The place warmed up quickly, but after a rainy day at CBeebies Land, we couldn’t take a shower. Thankfully, everything worked fine for the next two days.
