Railways (15)

The Beeching axe closed all goods yards at railway stations. In the 1970s Porter and Hughes, coal merchants, used the goods yard at Ingatestone Station and KP Nuts used the goods shed near the station entrance to Station Lane. The photograph was taken in October 1988 just before its demolition.
