Old Railway Building?.
This hut lies at the rear of a scaffolding yard at the end of Mannock Road N22. It would have overlooked the (now defunct) railway line from Palace Gates Station. Does anyone recognise the architecture of it as a railway building? It even had a flagpole until recently.

In early 1964 I was 10 years old and I had to choose a secondary school to start September, so we went to look at Downhills secondary school. My mother took me along Black Boy Lane, crossed West Green road and we walked along Langham road. About half way down Langham road, we walked through a gap in the houses on the right, and crossed a railway line by walking over an iron bridge (it could have been steel). Over the bridge was Downhills secondary school. Of course, the railway has now gone, the bridge has gone, but there's a couple of railway lines buried in the ground just where the bridge was, as a memorial to the Palace Gates to Seven Sisters line. I wonder if there's any pictures of the bridge.
