View northward past abutments of the former bridge of the ex-GWR Plymouth (to right) - Yealmpton (to left) branch, the station having been on the left. This branch had been closed to passengers back in July 1930, but during World War Two it was reopened for people displaced by the terrible 1941 Blitz on Plymouth, albeit with a service from Plymouth Friary (SR), from 21/7/41 until 6/10/47 and it remained open for goods until 29/7/60.
