Derby Friargate
Looking along the south wall of the old station towards the arched bridge over Friargate see image 42203. This was a large station, with ample capacity for holiday makers to travel to Skegness. What is not clear from this angle is that behind the white rectangle on the upper wall, four arches' worth of platform collapsed in about 1980. This was well after the station closed; but quite alarming for the lady who had just put some teabags in the bins.
