LMS Route: Trent Valley Line

Shilton Station: lnwr_shil1606

View of Shilton's main station structure which was sited on the bridge that carried Church Road over the Trent Valley line. The patterned brickwork, fascia detail to the front part of the roof and the doorway which has been reduced in height, provide an insight that the station would have been viewed as having some prestige despite the architecture not being as ornate as the first railway stations. Note the 'Shilton' and 'Station' signs, apparently formed in stone, over the pair of windows either side of the entrance.
