taken 8 years ago, near to Witney, Oxfordshire, England

Station Lane, Witney, Oxon
Station Lane, Witney, Oxon
The road is now one-way. It used to give access to Witney's original railway station which later became the goods station. It closed for goods in November 1970, passenger services to Witney having ended some years previously. There has recently been some discussion about the need to re-instate some kind of rail link to Witney and ideally beyond to Carterton. Possibilities suggested include some kind of light rail or tram-train. Whether anything will actually happen remains to be seen.
