Steam railway platform shelter and vistor centre

Bodmin and Wenford Railway plc

Completed summer 2009
 

A new railway platform shelter at Boscarne Junction for the Bodmin and Wenford steam railway. Higgs Young Architects obtained planning permission for the platform shelter  based on archive photographs of an L.S.W.R shelter at Port Isaac Road. The detailing of the final building reflects this precedent and other buildings on the historic North Cornwall railway. The shelter provides tourist information for the local Camel nature trail
