The condition of Ulverston station is a disgrace and, as a Grade II listed property and I am surprised that more pressure has not been brought to bear on Northern and Network rail to put things right. I did find an archived article in the online Westmoreland Gazette stating that work was to start. However, apart from a little scaffolding supporting the roof structure at the eastern end of the down platform, I could see no evidence of this work. I hope that it starts soon as in places the superb station building is in a parlous state.
