Kidderminster Station, Worcestershire, 1940s
A photograph of the mock Tudor station building at Kidderminster Station, taken in the 1940s. This was the third station building for Kidderminster - the first existed from the opening of the station in 1852 to 1859, the second was destroyed by fire. The mock Tudor station building was built shortly after and remained in use until dry rot meant that the structure was demolished in 1968 and replaced by a simple brick building

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph transports us back to the 1940s, capturing a moment in time at Kidderminster Station in Worcestershire. The focal point of the image is the remarkable mock Tudor station building, standing proudly amidst its surroundings. This unique architectural gem was actually the third iteration of Kidderminster Station's buildings. The first structure stood from 1852 until 1859 when it was replaced by a second building that tragically succumbed to fire. Rising from the ashes, this charming mock Tudor design emerged shortly after and served as the face of Kidderminster Station for several decades. Its half-timbered facade exudes an air of elegance and nostalgia, transporting onlookers to another era. Passengers would have entered through its doors, eager to embark on their train journeys or return home after exciting adventures. However, as time took its toll, dry rot gradually weakened this beloved landmark. In 1968, with heavy hearts but mindful of safety concerns, authorities made the difficult decision to demolish the structure. It was then replaced by a simpler brick building that lacked the distinctive charm of its predecessor. This print serves as a poignant reminder of an architectural masterpiece lost to history but forever etched in our memories. Its significance lies not only in being a testament to past glory but also as a symbol of resilience and adaptation within transportation infrastructure throughout Worcestershire's rich heritage.
