GWR Route: North Warwickshire Line
Grimes Hill & Wythall Platform: gwrgh88a
Close up of image 'gwrgh88' showing the new sign 'Grimes
Hill & Withall' and the Booking Office located on Norton Lane at the top of
the ramp to the up platform. The booking office was constructed from timber and
was built at 90° to Norton Lane with the roof forming part of a large
canopy of the entrance. The pathway appears to have been paved with timber
posts to one side and in all probability with wire running between them. The
three fire buckets hanging from the end wall were filled with sand and were a
necessary precaution with timber framed buildings, particularly when next to
steam locomotives emitting hot embers.
