This is the booking office within the station at Corfe Castle. The station, built for the opening of the line in 1885, is still heated with a coal burning fireplace located in this waiting room. A steel pedestrian footbridge originally built in 1893 by the London Brighton & South Coast Railway connecting the Up and Down platforms here was installed by volunteers and opened in 2007. A replica steam engine does duty as a donation box next to the booking office wall on the left. |
