Please notice the "odd pole" adjacent to the Graving Dock signal box. I believe to place the box where it was the telephone wires have been moved to the north to give clearance.

"Graving docks" used for ship repairs by "Brigham & Cowan" directly opposite across Hedon Road. Their staff arrived on site via a tunnel under the railway. The docks are still in use to-day but now with a cover over them for the import of high grade steel.

Site of a turntable, used for turning passenger locomotives using the one time station here. The station was intended to take over the tram traffic along Hedon Road but the Hull & Barnsley company wasted their money.
