Bantry
The former station site at Bantry is now covered by a road and a Supervalu supermarket. However, remarkably, the ruined former single road engine shed survives in the supermarket car park. I can only presume that the remains are a protected structure although I have been unable to establish this. A small turntable stood directly in front of the shed. The line to Bantry was opened in stages, first to Hill Top station from 1881 and then to the final Bantry station site which was behind photographer in 1892.
