EGLOSKERRY TO TRESMEER since closure
|
Egloskerry station building, built of brick, has also been
adapted to a private residence, known as "The Old Station", but has
not been altered much from the original design. This photograph of the platform
side of the building was taken by Ron Strutt. |
The platform nameboard, a fine example of Exmouth Junction's
concrete output!. Photographed by Ron Strutt. |

Now in the twentyfirst century and looking a bit smarter after a
change of ownership! The front of the station as photographed in 2004. |
There is even a short length of track, with a van, on the course
of the up loop. The platform railings and a seat are, as can be seen, still
extant. |

Tresmeer station is another built of brick, though it is not in
Tresmeer village but in the neighbouring village of Splatt. It has been
modified quite a bit, but still boasts its NCR heritage. Photographed by
Ron Strutt. |
An interesting, and unusual, view of the footings of Tresmeer
Signalbox.
The Signalbox was demolished when the station was closed but the foundations
remained and were excavated by the station's new owner, Mr Robinson.

Looking down at the station from the road overbridge in 2004.
Not much has changed from the view two above, though things do look a little
tidier! |
The Tresmeer Goods Shed, minus its canopy and looking very much
as if it has seen better days, is still earning its living even if not for its
original owners. |
