Chesil Street car park and old railway line

Image: © Peter Facey Taken: 18 Jan 2006

Looking towards Bar End. This is taken as far as practicable from the same position as John Thorn's 1960 photo Image Winchester Chesil railway station, now a multistorey car park, was behind the photographer. The railway line has become a road. I think John may have taken his photo from the footbridge visible in http://www.gwr.org.uk/notes/dnswinchesterlarge.jpg
