A quiet Saturday morning in South Brent
The snowfall reduced traffic to a trickle, it was wonderful until it became slushy and dirty with salt.
This is Station Road, looking towards the Anchor with its jetty over the pavement. The Royal Oak is one of 2 pubs still functioning in the village, the Anchor being a closed one now used as a newsagents and shop.

A snowy station yard, South Brent
South Brent was once a busy junction station on the South Devon Railway mainline to Plymouth. It was closed in 1963 but Image provides a snapshot of it in 1958.
Some of the infrastructure remains, the signal box is on what remains of the island platform, and the goods shed is now a busy dental surgery, see Image The rest of the yard is used for parking and has a small factory in one part.
Snow is not new here; in March 1891 a drama occurred when the GWR's premier daily express from Paddington to Plymouth, nicknamed "The Zulu", was stranded here for 4 days in what was called The Great Blizzard. Greg Wall's Book of South Brent published by Halsgrove in 2005, has an interesting account from newspaper reports of the time.
