GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line
Wootton Wawen Platform: gwrww523
Looking towards Stratford upon Avon circa 1960 showing the
fencing on the left marking the footpath to the down platform circa 1960s. The
'station' has seen some changes since the 1930s, the removal of the oil lamp
posts which were replaced by electric lights fixed to the wooden poles seen
along the platform. The other more significant change was to the platform
structure on the down (left) platform. In image 'gwrww522' this structure was a pagoda shape whilst
above its roof line is now curved. Close up examination appears to support the
idea that the original pagoda shaped roof has been replaced with a curved one.
This required the gap between the original straight topped side wall and the
curved roof to be filled in, which it was but with a plainer sheet material
than the original.
