Hail to the Hive!
Assed this railway signal gantry which was at the entrance to an Aldi supermarket.The semaphore signals were a tip of the hat to the industrial heritage of the area and the Great Western railways impact. The supermarket was the site of a sizeable engine shed and works so it’s kind of cool they’ve incorporated the old signLs into the new shopping area.WalKing into Newton Abbot today from our friend @diveratts house we
They immediately caught my attention raised up with their signals against the summer sky.
As usual I stopped and snapped away taking photos of something that everyone walks by every day and thinks little of and asks no questions.
I quizzed @diveratt about them and he told me the local history was a little controversial as the old engine sheds were listed building yet somehow’ caught fire’ one day. Same old story.
So at least the semaphore signals remain as a reminder of what his site once was.
Love a bit of #monomad 😜
Its called progress apparently
That structure with that somewhat dramatic sky gives it a special touch in your photos and adding that they are in black and white makes it even cooler 🖤
