Bedlington South signal box (NE, date not known)
Bedlington South signal box (NE, date not known) 
 The impressive Bedlington South signal box is seen with its near-identical North counterpart in the distance beyond the semaphores. The box was constructed the North Eastern Railway being of a slightly earlier design than the 1912 Bedlington North box with a hipped roof. I suspect that it dates from around 1880 with the exact date not known. The box may well control a very short section of track but the track layout is complicated and it also controls the level crossing that is in view.
