Shireoaks Station signal box (MS & L, 1874)
Shireoaks Station signal box (MS & L, 1874) The 1874 Shireoaks Station signal box looks a little sorry for itself but is in largely original condition. It was constructed in 1874 by Saxby and Farmer for the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway (MS&LR). It is located at the end of Shireoaks' station adjacent to the level crossing on Shireoaks Common. The box appears to be of an odd design with the front centre of the top being devoid of windows making it look as if this ought to be the rear of the box! Keywords: Shireoaks Station signal box
