Woolwich Arsenal Station - 1959 - Cattle Pens
Cattle pens photographed on a damp day in 1959, looking from the East end of the Up platform. It may seem odd that such facilities should be in such an urban place, but at one time cattle were bought in to go to the RACS (Royal Arsenal Co-operative Society) abattoir off Garland Road, part of their Woodlands Farm. That traffic had stopped by the time of this picture.
A more recent view Image, taken in the opposite direction, shows the area now forming a car park.
Scanned from 2.25 inch square black and white negatives.

Woolwich Arsenal Signal Box in 1959
The signal box at Woolwich Arsenal Station, seen on a wet and gloomy day in 1959, one of my earliest railway photographs. Taken from the end of Parry Place, which in 1959 ran to the edge of the railway retaining wall. There is some patterning on the photo as I was taking it through a chain-link fence.
The signal box remained in use until March 1970.
The photo was scanned from a 2.25 inch square negative and has been cropped to remove most of the sky with its chain-link pattern.

Sikh temple, Woolwich
The Ramgarhia Association Gurdwara shown in Image has lost its bright colours. "This building dates to 1889 and was originally the Freemasons hall and then the Woolwich Town & Social Club before being acquired by the Sikh Association" http://edithsstreets.blogspot.com/2015/01/railway-from-london-bridge-to-gravesend_10.html (A brilliant site by the way).
Behind the gurdwara are tower blocks on the Armstrong Estate.

This 2005 view is already out of date because the Docklands Light Railway terminus is presently (2006) under construction at the far side of the station. The freight train is aggregate unloaded at Angerstein Wharf Image
