EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Horrabridge Station in Devon during the 1960s. The image, taken at platform level, transports us back to a bygone era of railway travel. Horrabridge station first opened its doors in 1859 as part of the South Devon and Tavistock Railway, serving as a vital transportation hub for both locals and visitors alike. The photograph captures the essence of this bustling station with its charming architecture and well-maintained platforms. Passengers can be seen waiting patiently for their trains, perhaps embarking on exciting journeys or returning home from distant adventures. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and nostalgia. However, beneath the surface lies a bittersweet tale - Horrabridge Station closed its doors to passengers in 1962.
