  1. The curve starts at the 4th arch from the Brook Street end, this within the covered station area. It is not really possible to see this in a photograh as the change of direction is on the line of a down pipe. I suspect that the line follows a curve in the existing road given that these two platforms were added at a later date. The roof line at the opposite end is different and does not meet the side wall of the station in quite the same way. Link below is to an opposite end view of the wall. https://www.facebook.com/ilkleychat/photos/pb.518436761577943.-2207520000.1460206722./911728535582095/?type=3&theater regards James
  2. There are some very good arial shots of the station on the Britain from Above website http://www.britainfromabove.org.uk/image/epw024365 The wall is straight the full length of the platform and begins to curve just before the end of the canopies as the wall comes in towards Brook Street bridge. This is still evident today with the curve beginning just after the subway entrance in the direction of Brook Street Other pictures of the station on the site show the footbridge straight on springs lane and at right angles to railway road. regards James
