ady77014 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Does anyone know if Drawings are available for the 1892 station building that stood, and still stands, at Petworth Station in West Sussex. Don’t worry I’m not getting my hopes up… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted August 7, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 7, 2016 The only place I can think off that might be worth a try is the County Records Office in Chichester. Were there any drawings in the appropriate Middleton Press volume? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Claude_Dreyfus Posted August 8, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 8, 2016 Yes, the only plan of the structure itself I have found is in Vivien Thompson's book. Although long out of print, they are around - one of two on Ebay as we speak... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Period-Railway-Modelling-Buildings-Thompson-Vivien-Hardback-Book-/142027845418 For a station track plan, the MP Book 'Branch Lines Around Midhurst' provides an 1897 map.

Clearwater Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I spent a couple of nights of my honeymoon at petworth station in its hotel incarnation. If you're looking for plans, you may do as well as a cheeky email to the hotel asking if they have any! David Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium njee20 Posted August 8, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 8, 2016 Based on my dealings with the hotel I'd hold out very little hope though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
