TF5461 : Railway Station (former), Seacroft

taken 13 years ago, near to Seacroft, Lincolnshire, England

Railway Station (former), Seacroft
Railway Station (former), Seacroft
From here it's a straight run into Skegness and with a pair of binoculars you would be able to see the station. The level crossing is behind the photographer.
I believe that when Seacroft had a station, it was probably to the left, where there is some hardstanding. The station was originally named Cow Bank, when it opened on 28th July 1873. It was renamed as Seacroft on 1st October 1900. The station closed to passengers on 7th December 1953 and to goods on 27th April 1964.
The signalbox was to the left and next to the crossing.
