Frontage, Gobowen station
Frontage, Gobowen station On our long journey home from Bangor to Bath Graham and I made one more railway-related stop in the dusk at Gobowen. There was just enough light to take a long exposure of an image of the unusual station building probably utilising Graham's tripod. Back in 1981 the station was looking particularly run down and in need of some attention. Designed by Thomas Mainwaring Penson the building is now Grade II listed which affords it a degree of protection with it now fully restored. It was built between 1846 and 1848 by the Shrewsbury and Chester Railway in a notable Florentine (or Italianate) style with white stucco facing and a small turret. Today it is in use containing a number of business units and is a notable structure within the town. Keywords: Frontage Gobowen station
