Monument Lane Shed: lnwrmlsh1510b
Close up of image 'lnwrmlsh1510' showing the shed still in full
operation as the shed was being demolished section by section. Seen on the left
of the shed, as part of the original structure, is where the wall has been
extended to form a screen. As can be seen this wall has been subject to recent
repair with new brickwork to the column and coping stones for capping. On the
right of the shed we can see that the front elevation of the structure has been
removed exposing the ducting used to take away the smoke to exit via the
chimneys. The nearest three-road portion still retains its front elevation
which appears to had been constructed in timber in lieu of the brickbuilt
version seen in image lnwrmlsh81a. The area to
the left of the shed was used to store wagons and stable locomotives some in
store as seen in image lnwrmlsh80.
