Summary
[edit]DescriptionThe Railway Station at Grange-over-Sands - geograph.org.uk - 1517637.jpg |
English: The Railway Station at Grange-over-Sands Grange-over-Sands is a small Cumbrian seaside town lying on the north side of Morecambe Bay. Originally a small fishing village, Grange developed during the second half of the 19th Century with the arrival of the Lancaster & Ulverston Railway (later absorbed into the Furness Railway), when it became a popular seaside resort and much of this is evident in the Town's (mostly unspoiled) Victorian architecture.
An early morning view of Grange-over-Sands Station looking towards Morcambe Bay. The Ulverstone & Lancaster Railway was opened through the first station on this site on 27th August 1857: the first passenger train ran on 1st September. The Furness Railway, having absorbed the U&LR in 1862, commissioned the architect Edward Graham Paley of Lancaster to design the present station, which was built in 1864-72. The station is listed Grade II and stands in a Conservation Area. It was restored in 1997/98. |
