So far as I am aware the original station at Clitheroe was on the same site.

The first station at Clitheroe was 220 yards NORTH of the current site and as such, is allowable to be used upon this quiz.

Woodcroft Halt

Bramley and Wonersh

Sorry - I'm a bit lost!
If we're going north on the Portsmouth direct line, shouldn't Woodcroft Halt and Havant New be the other way around?

If we're now on the Cranleigh line, is the next closed station:-

Bramley & Wonerish?

EDIT:-

dzug2 confirms we are on the Cranleigh line, so I offer:-

Cranleigh

Havant..................Still open
Havant New...........Closed
Rowlands Castle......Still open
Woodcroft Halt.......Closed
