Caythorpe station was on the Grantham to Lincoln line which opened in 1867. The line was owned by the Great Northern Railway. The station closed in 1962 and the line followed in 1965. This view is from Caythorpe Heath Lane. The station was on the other side of the bridge where I am standing but all trace has now been obliterated by a recycling plant built on the site.
