EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the year 1957, offering a fascinating glimpse into the past at Savernake Low Level Station. Through the lens of a camera positioned on the footbridge bridge that gracefully stretches across the tracks, we are treated to an intriguing perspective. The junction between the main line leading to Westbury and the branch line heading towards Marlborough can be seen in the distance, hinting at bustling railway activity. What truly catches our attention is not only this historical moment frozen in time but also the intricate decorative scroll work adorning the footbridge itself. Proudly displaying "GWR" and "1883" these ornate details remind us of both its purpose as a functional structure and its significance as a symbol of craftsmanship from another era.
