The image showcases the additions made to the roofing and columns of the station, a crucial part of its structural development. The station, which opened in 1850, underwent these modifications nine years later to enhance its architectural appeal and functionality. The addition of the ornate cast-iron columns and the new roofing design brought a sense of grandeur and sophistication to the station, reflecting the growing importance of rail transport during the Victorian era. The elevations of the columns, as depicted in this photograph, reveal intricate details of their design.
