LMS Route: Stratford Midland Junction - The Shakespeare
Route
SMJ Locomotives: smjsa166
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.
