Corner Hall aka The Old Vicarage at Staines-upon-Thames
The wisteria clad house on the corner of Vicarage Road and Church Street is named Corner Hall, but was originally The Vicarage. It dates from the late 18th / early 19th century and was once owned by a member of the local influential Ashby Family. The wisteria which covers it was brought from Japan in the 1870s. A later Vicarage did exist on Vicarage Road to the north of Wraysbury Road.

Staines: The Bells
This Young's outlet has a somewhat droll sign showing a vicar with his hand cupped to his ear with a church tower in the background. Given the proximity of the pub to Image it's a shame that the tower isn't that of the church!

Staines: Former Staines West railway station (1)
When the Staines and West Drayton Railway completed their line into Staines in 1885 they converted this handy Georgian mansion house into the terminus station rather than constructing a new building. The line and the station were closed in 1965, and the building was converted into offices. For a view of the other side of the former station please see Image
The sculpture on the right is by the sculptor John Atkin and is entitled "Pound Mill".

Staines: Former Staines West railway station (2)
This is the rear of Image Nick Catford's great website has an image of the station in 1968, three years after closure here http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/s/staines_west/index.shtml Evidently the railway was double-tracked virtually up to the building and had one platform on the left side of the current office car park. It is assumed that the buffers on the left here were originally at the end of the tracks. Some of the original rails are inbedded in the car park surface, although, again, not in their original locations.
