Description

Shapwick station looking south from Down platform. Partial view of level crossing. Note concrete station nameboard and ‘BEWARE OF TRAINS’ sign.

In the high res. versions of the file, a timetable poster is visible; ‘EASTER MONDAY April 18th. POOLE BOURNEMOUTH’. This dates the photo to 1960 and it is believed that the other monochrome images were taken at the same time.

A Post office letterbox is just visible in the station ; see WSHSD_2015_41_176.
