Yatton

The up side building at Yatton Station, between Bristol Temple Meads and Bridgwater, looking approx. south west on a Sunday afternoon in May. A near identical building exists on the down side platform. West of Yatton were the junctions for the Cheddar Valley line, which turned south from a bay platform on the down side, and for the Clevedon branch which turned north from a bay platform on this side. Part of the canopy for the latter platform can be seen on the extreme right. See image 51843. My wife can be seen by the Disco awaiting me opening it, after we had put our two sons and family back on the train to return to Wakefield and York respectively after attending her brothers 50th wedding anniversary bash the day before. We set off later for a few days in Somerset and Dorset, with views from this to follow on Railscot, before heading back to Yorkshire.
