Looking towards Stratford upon Avon from the goods yard end of the down platform with Shirley's signal box straddling the platform and sidings on the left. The home starter signal which is in the 'off' position allowing trains the right of way can be seen against the left bridge abutment which unusually has not been painted white to help drivers to see it at night. The state of the platform with overgrown flowerbeds provides an indication of the changes that occurred after the Second World War.
