No Progress at the Railway Tavern
Nothing has been done with this derelict pub since this shot from a few years ago.

Considering the indecent haste with which some pubs are closed and turned into housing, they're taking their time with this one.

The Keelings, Cinderford
This remarkably dull view of a modern housing estate has very little to commend it, other than that it shows the site of Cinderford's railway station, opened by the Severn & Wye Railway in 1900. The station on this site was actually the town's third station: the S&W had opened two previous stations a fair trek from the town and were eventually forced to extend their line into this site closer to the town centre. The only other point of interest is that Keeling was the family name of two successive chief engineers of the Severn & Wye Company, father and son George William Keeling and George Baker Keeling, the second of whom was responsible for the design of the ill-fated Severn Railway Bridge, and it's nice to see that the name lives on! A roughly equivalent view of the station in its heyday can be seen at http://www.forestprints.co.uk/railway_station_cinderford_v1.htm

Derelict former Railway Tavern, Cinderford
Viewed across Station Street. It looks bad from this side, but it looks worse from the other side. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3262197
The building was originally a small hotel located opposite Cinderford railway station. The withdrawal of passenger services from the station in 1958 inevitably reduced business here. It had become a pub by the 1970s. The pub closed down in 2007.

In October 2011 a fire, thought to be arson, caused the damage seen on the left. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3262331
