A post 1942 schematic diagram of the SMJ station and shed and the various sidings and facilities. The erection of the Silo on the siding to Lucy's Mill dates the drawing as being after 1942. During the middle part of the Second World War the government had constructed a number of grain silos across the country and the one erected in Stratford upon Avon was located on the siding to Lucy's Mill. See image 'smjsa167' for a view of the Grain Silo. The station entrance off 'Station Road' was bisected by two sidings, one to Lucy's Mill and the other passing through the goods shed ceasing adjacent to the winch shed.
