Taken after final closure, probably around 1960, this picture looking towards the buffers shows Holcombe Brook station and its goods yard. Compared to earlier pictures see image 29655 the conductor rails and signal box have gone, and everything is heavily overgrown but the basic layout can still be seen. The site was subsequently cleared and redeveloped. Photo courtesy of Bury Historical Society.
