Close up of image 'gwrhd676' showing the main entrance to the yard for road vehicles entering via Pitsford Street on 12th February 1940. According to Frank Popplewell in his series of articles in the 'Great Western Railway Journal', the hut in the foreground belonged to the contractor and was retained by the GWR after the contractor had no further need of it and used as a gate man's shelter.
