Hebdon Bridge signal box (L&Y, 1891) (Closed) Built in 1891, Hebdon Bridge signal box is one of only a few remaining L&YR signal boxes to survive in anything like original condition. So much so that in July 2013, it was one of 26 'highly distinctive' signal boxes listed by Ed Davey, the minister for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, in a joint initiative by English Heritage and Network Rail. The box was decommissioned a few months ago when the Calder Valley re-signalling scheme rendered it redundant. Already, it has been attacked by vandals so I hope that the Friends of Hebden Bridge Station and the Calder Valley Community Land Trust can get things organised to preserve it better for the future.
