View eastward from the Dalton - Sessay road. Sessay station was on the ex-NER York (to right) - Northallerton (to left) section of the East Coast Main Line and was completely rebuilt during the widening works here in World War Two, completed 5/43. The station was closed to passengers from 15/9/58, to goods from 10/8/64, but it is possible that this house - although rather grand, had been the station house, because the architecture is very similar to that of other stations rebuilt during the earlier widenings along this stretch carried out in the 1930s.
