Green Park Station

Another incredibly wet day...so I think a black and white to capture the mood at Green Park Station in Bath is on the right track!

Green Park Station was originally Queen Square Station, built in the 1860s, and in operation as a working station until the 1960s. By the 1950s, holidaymakers were flocking to Green Park Station in order to escape to the coast.

Changes to British Rail led to services being slowly wound down, and the doors were finally closed on 7 March 1966 as the last train from Bristol pulled in.

The derelict site was restored as retail and market space in the 1980s and has provided a space to support local businesses and events ever since.

A full display of the Station’s remarkable 100 year history can be found in the Station foyer.
That's a very grand perspective. The symmetry and sense of depth is terrific!

I love symmetry and I love this image. The person walking in the opposite direction to the arrow adds an extra dimension.
