Coaling stage, not standard GWR pattern which was larger. Trucks would be shunted up the ramp in front of the building and the coal would be transferred through the building to the loco waiting at a lower level on the track behind. A clearer photo is EPW021688 from 1928. It is likely by 1932 that it was out of use it certainly was by 1936.
