Located on the Great Northern & Great Eastern Joint line between Sleaford and Lincoln, Martin Road was downgraded from a full box to a crossing box. It was an LNER box but its date of construction does not appear to be recorded so if anybody can furnish me with any information it would be appreciated. Having enlarged the original scanned negative it appears that it has its LNER blue nameplate above the door. The box was abolished on 15.12.85 but the crossing and gates, as seen here, remain with it now being a UWC (user-worked crossing).
