LMS Route: Rugby to Leamington Spa (Avenue)

Birdingbury Station: lnwrbird1333c

Close up of image 'lnwrbird1333' showing Birdingbury station's waiting room which was sited on the down platform and built using timber framing and boards with one side open facing the down platform. The canopy is an extension of the roof rather than the normal independent structure cantilevered out from the face of the building. The intricate and decorative fascia boards demonstrates the level of detail adopted by the LNWR. The two sets of milk churns indicate that milk was an important part of the traffic from the station probably being shipped to Leamington.
