Brinklow Station: lnwr_brin1101
View of the down platform looking towards Nuneaton station
showing the rear of the station and steps to the platforms circa 1950. The
booking hall was located in the centre of the building with entrance door
facing out on to the road (as seen in image 'lnwr_brin1099') and with a window (as seen above)
facing over the tracks. Access to the platforms were via the corrugated-iron
covered steps. One side of the building would have been used for the
stationmaster and booking clerk and the other side would be used for
passengers. In all probability the booking hall would be used as a general
waiting room with a ladies-only waiting room being provided with en-suite
toilet facilities. On the left a small timber structure can be seen used as a
passenger waiting room. The station was never busy and if it had not been
located on a busy mainline it would not have been out of place on a sleepy
rural branch.
