View northward, towards Moretonhampstead; ex-GWR (Newton Abbot) - Heathfield - Moretonhampstead branch. The station and the service to Moretonhampstead was closed on 2/3/59 (goods 6/4/64, but oil was brought to Bovey from Heathfield until 4/5/70). The station - 'Tracey' in the name - seemed to be still well-preserved in 1964.
