I can remember these buildings when I used to go to my Aunties who lived in Little Lane.

Lovely pic, Ron. I don't know this particular station but love the old lamp and the station buildings. Wish stations were still as atmospheric. Ince Station was lovely when I was a child, but is now just a staff-less,soul-less platform where you don't feel safe these days.
