I concur. Just ran a photography competition from a Google drive. Not perfect, but free.

Yes, there’s bits of a workshop floor, steps, line markers, one whole platform near the entrance with sleepers. I found horn waste in the river dredge that dates back further. It’s an incredibly deep land, fullers pits, dyers, Crome painted here. norwichcastle.wordpress.com/2021/07/08/f...

It inhabits a strange place in my memory. It closed 10 years before we moved here from London, so it was all derelict, and was the playground for a lot of the kids locally. Helped set this up too; the forgotten M&GN station a few hundred metres from where I live now. trainwood.co.uk

I hadn’t, thank you. I grew up in a house that backed on to a Beeching (M&GN?) line that ran to Felmingham/Melton. We used to play on it right up to the derelict town station, watched them build the bypass over it in about 1976. It’s a big theatre stage in my memory, clinker, nettles and gangs.

It’s a very good album. Suspect they’ll get down your way to play eventually.

Boundary
Ovillers, Somme, France.
Formed in 16 days from 1/7/1916, expanded during the battlefield clearances. It sits on the downward slope of the rise. I first saw it through some trees, white laced chalk staining from trenches dug here, a ghost in the soil until the crops push through.
