Former Seaton Station

Image: © Oliver Dixon Taken: 9 Mar 2014

Seaton station was opened in 1850 and eventually took on a role of some importance as the junction where the line from Rugby split, with one branch going to Peterborough, the other going to Stamford. There was also a minor branch line to Uppingham from here. The station was closed in 1966. The site of the station, which still retains some of the original buildings, is now a scrapyard. The station footbridge seen in Image in 2007 has since been demolished.
