Whitehaven Preston Street railway station (site), Cumbria
Opened in 1849 by the Whitehaven & Furness Junction Railway on the line from Whitehaven towards Barrow-in-Furness, this was the original terminus of the line. It only served passengers until 1854 when Bransty tunnel south from the current Whitehaven station was completed and linked up the two lines.
Preston Street continued as a goods station for many years (need to confirm final closure date) but is now inevitably a supermarket. The presumed boundary wall just can be seen at the back.
