Looking northwest towards Warminster Codford signal box is seen very much in the twilight of its operating life similar to the time of the day when it is being photographed! It had just ten months left in operation before closure was to take place with an automatic half-barrier crossing being installed and colour lights coming under the control of the Salisbury panel. There was once a station at Codford that closed, along with all the others in the Wylye valley between Warminster and Salisbury, on 19.09.55.
