Remains of Wheelock station
The station platform has been rescued from vegetation. Wikipedia's helpful "List of closed railway stations in Britain" gives the date of closure as 1930 and the original station name as "Wheelock and Sandbach" although it was not very near the latter.

Former Wheelock station building

Meadowbank Avenue, Wheelock
Infill development at its most blatant. At the time of the photograph this development was so new (built c.2011) that online maps either did not show it at all, or still showed the pair of houses on Wheelock Road that had been demolished to make way for the access road into the field behind where several houses were built.
