Description: | The Railway Hotel was pulled down in the 1950's and was replaced with a new building. Over the years, the site has seen many changes - a factory producing lady's underwear, a bingo club and now a night club. The railway bridge was very low and difficult for double decker buses who had to pass through the centre area of the bridge, thus holding up the traffic. The new bridge built after WW2 spans four lanes of traffic. The actual approach road and station exterior have changed very little since the 1920's.
