An interesting row of buildings. The wooden building to the left, a brick one in the middle and a concrete structure to the right.
The concrete structure - a ballast or ash bin - would be formed of prefabricated concrete sections that were erected on site. By the 1920s many of the old wooden railway structures were in poor condition and several companies looked to new materials to replace them. This was especially so in the case of the LNER and SR which produced a wide range of concrete products from ballast bins to footbridges.
