Chichester signal box (LBSC, 1882)
Chichester signal box (LBSC, 1882) Chichester signal box is a fine and imposing example of a London, Brighton & South Coast Railway structure built in 1882. It is only one of two Saxby & Farmer Type 5 signal boxes still extant the other being Eastbourne which I visited a few years ago. The box contains an NX panel and has been a little modified from its original design by, for example, the bricking up of the round-headed locking room windows and the more recent installation of UPVC double-glazing units. The twin air conditioning units are not particularly subtle additions either! Keywords: Chichester signal box LBSC
