Nunthorpe signal box (NE, 1903)
Nunthorpe signal box (NE, 1903) 
 The rear view of Nunthorpe signal box taken from the level crossing. The box is grade II listed so this accounts for its survival in its current form. For example, the windows were replaced in 2011 but they replicate the original timber ones having an identical glazing pattern and the balcony also survives. In addition, no toilet block has been added that is an all too often occurrence but the recent green security fencing spoils the scene. A particularly notable feature is the gablet mounted ventilators that cleverly combines the constructional advantages of a gabled and a hipped roofed, producing a visually striking signal box.
