LNWR Stores at Stockport

It's hard to live in Crewe as someone passionately absorbed in the Historic Environment and not develop an interest for Railway Heritage - especially the great London and North Western Railway Company. It was that company which saw the greatest establishment of the town of Crewe.

I've passed this towering building next to the train line many times over the years and wanted to stop to photo it. A fortuitous opportunity combined with perfect light was afforded me, and this is one of the shots I got of the building, with Christ Church Stockport's spire to the left.

It's now still being used for a storage space by one of the burgeoning storage industry's members.
