This is one of those stations that I would really like to have visited in its heyday. The Georgian style, stone features and engineering brick make for a pleasing combination. Not only is it a big station there were extensive yards here as well. It would make for an interesting model for anyone with lots of space (and cash).

The impressive sweeping drive up to the station entrance is now rather spoiled by a modernist building.


The drive is behind the parapet wall above the lower arcade. It would be interesting to know what that area was originally used for. Any ideas anyone?






























There was once an overall roof and these half round windows helped to light the interior. 






A rather sad sight. How long before the bridge is condemned on safety grounds?




The former parcels bays.


The sad sight of a once busy yard now becoming overgrown.

They certainly new how to build such grand structures in those days.
At least most of it and the surrounds are being looked after, and a sad to see the rest in decay.
