GWR Route: Banbury to Wolverhampton
Hockley Station: gwrhd675
Looking south in the summer of 1940 in the direction of the
offices and Snow Hill with Hockley North Gate in the foreground. By the early
summer of 1940 the building of the new Top shed was sufficiently advanced for
part of it to be brought into operation. The cartage deck under the first three
pitched roofs are now in operation as is evident by the variety of vehicles
parked underneath the canopy. As the gable ends are being clad they are being
painted. The slope of Pitsfield Street down to the junction with Icknield
Street, just past the offices in the distance, is evident by looking at the
roofs of the houses on the right.
