GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line
Shirley Station: gwrsh1116a
Close up of image 'gwrsh1116' showing Shirley station's
goods shed and office secured by a pair of swing gates and the yard shed used
to store equipment. The gates are of different widths reflecting the need for
one gate to traverse the track and be secured against the raised platform. The
platform continued into and through the goods shed and was the same height as
the floor of wagons and vans and used to barrow off their contents. The wooden
steps are a later addition as earlier photographs show only the brick
steps.
