Garstang Town

A railway photograph - honest! See image 60695 taken around sixty years earlier from this spot, which is the site of Garstang Town station. Apart from the road being called 'Station Way' there is no trace of the old railway but behind the bungalow the land falls away sharply where the bridge across Lancaster Road used to be. The two lines of trees beyond stand either side of the old railway embankment, which now forms part of a River Wyre flood defence scheme. The Victorian built house 'Beech Mount' can be seen to the right of the bungalow, the only direct link to the earlier photograph.
