The former L&YR depot, located alongside Crescent Road, closed at the end of June 1968, at which time it carried shed code 9K and was one of the last BR operational steam sheds. The buildings had been demolished and the site cleared by 1973. A housing estate now stands here, the main street of which is named The Sheddings.
