Close up showing the goods shed's side elevation  facing the railway

This close up of image 'smje88' shows the goods shed's side elevation which faced the railway. The two doors seen in the view above are for the entrance used in transferring goods between rail and road. As can be seen the bottom of the doors are approximately 3'6" above the ground being flush to the platform inside the shed. The white semi-circle at the top of the doors is thought to be an infill rather than a decorative feature. Instead of using a lintel the builder's have built the opening as an archway in the manner used for the doors seen image 'smje13a'.
