Helmshore

A view towards Stubbins, from the site of the level crossing at Helmshore, showing the now extended Station House, cutting and overbridge together with a cottage built on the site of, and in the style of, the old signalbox. In front of this one of the original level crossing gate posts can still be seen. The line to Accrington closed in December 1966 and the station site, behind the camera, has now been covered by housing.
