Watford: The old railway station house
In terms of railway history this insignificant little building is very important as it was the original station in Watford, dating from 1837 when the first section of what was to become the London and Birmingham Railway was opened. Intending passengers would enter through the front door and go down a flight of steps to the trackside level to board their trains. It was in use for only a short period of time as the hemmed-in site could not support the longer platforms necessary to accommodate newer and longer trains, and by 1860 the station on the site of the current Watford Junction station to the south of St Albans Road had been built and opened. Fortunately the building is Grade II listed and although in use as a car sales office it appears in good external order.

Former Bus Garage, Leavesden Road (1)
Situated in Leavesden Road near St Albans Road, this bus garage was opened on the 25th August 1920 by the London General Omnibus Company to operate bus services in the Watford area. However, it closed on the 17th June 1952 when LGOC's successor London Transport opened the bus garage at Garston, http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4622491 refers. Since then, it has been used for other purposes, but now it has been sold for redevelopment.
