Berkeley Railway Station
Berkeley was the only intermediate station between Sharpness & the junction with the Bristol to Gloucester main line at Berkeley Road. It had opened in 1876 and closed to passengers in November 1964. In the background can be seen a gantry crane spanning a siding. This was used to transfer nuclear fuel rods from rail to road vehicles (& vice versa for the spent fuel rods) for use in the nearby Berkeley Nuclear Power station which had opened in 1962.

A field north of Berkeley in early spring
A view west from Station Road on March 10th 2013. Though meteorologically early spring, it felt like an unusually cold day in mid-winter, with a keen NE wind, overcast skies and midday temperature only about 2 degrees Celsius (mid 30s Fahrenheit).
The only certainty at this time of year is steadily increasing duration of daylight...
