\"Abandoned<\/p>\n

Terry Davies from Oz got in touch and asked if I could identify the location of this abandoned station, located somewhere in the Heathrow and Amesbury area.<\/p>\n

I don’t recognise the buildings, so I thought I’d put it to my trusty readers, as well as asking on the urban75 bulletin boards<\/a>, where most questions get swiftly answered!<\/p>\n

\"Abandoned<\/p>\n

Terry explains:<\/p>\n

I have some excellent B & W photos taken in 1970 of an abandoned\u00a0station somewhere in southern England. Only clue to whereabouts is I\u00a0was photographing planes landing at Heathrow on the same day.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"Abandoned<\/p>\n

The station looks well and truly\u00a0abandoned, although the building seems in reasonable repair.<\/p>\n

\"Abandoned<\/p>\n

Any ideas?<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you know where this station is – and perhaps have other photos to share – I’d love to hear from you!<\/p>\n
