Wykeham Forest, North Yorkshire

Perhaps better enlarged

The barbican gate, although much rebuilt, probably reflects the form of an original built in about 1300.

The signal box dates from c. 1856. Built for the York and North Midland Railway, probably designed by G. T. Andrews. It is now a grade II listed building. Kirkham Abbey railway station was a minor station serving the village of Kirkham in North Yorkshire, on the York to Scarborough Line and was opened on 5 July 1845 by the York and North Midland Railway. It closed on 22 September 1930.The station building, now a private dwelling, is situated to the right out of picture) The station was originally just named Kirkham, but the 'Abbey' suffix was added on 1 June 1875, to take into account the proximity of the ruins of Kirkham Priory. (See sign on the signal box)

Best enlarged The five bar gate prevents vehicular access to the estate track but allows walkers easy access (via a bridge) to the hills and glens on far side of the River Etive.
