View of the original 1844 station's portico and forecourt
built by the London & Birmingham Railway. The structure above originally
coped with both the arrivals and departures but as traffic grew it soon became
necessary to use the facility only for departures with arrivals being catered
for by another building which was located to the right of the above building.
The above facilities were superceded when the LNWR built in 1883 the line
connecting Rugby with Leamington Avenue and then on to a new station at
Milverton. To the left of the above building was a carriage landing dock. A
plan of the above building can be seen 'here'.
