#29533 The Railway Station, Dovercourt (1908) Bell's Photography.
"Dovercourt Bay" Railway station on the Harwich line, it was opened by the Eastern Union Railway on Tuesday the 15th August 1854. It was originally named Dovercourt, but the name was changed to Dovercourt Bay on 1 May 1913 and finally reverted again to Dovercourt on 14 December 1972. The Station situated at the junction of Lower Kingsway and Station road, has changed very little over the years and is fortunately still operational, with a steady flow of commuters (including London for a princely sum of £8,180 per year in 2024). The fountain to the front, was built around the same time as this photo was taken and gave refreshment to man and animal alike.
