Weighbridge Office & Bridge

A late 19th century office for a large goods yard. The prototype was built for Bradford & Sons at Crewkerne Somerset and is extant today.

One end of the building contained weighing scales connected to the weighbridge immediately outside.

The brickwork of the model is Flemish brick bond with Ham stone quoins. Internal decoration is provided, without floor or scales. An Avery weighbridge and simulated bullhead rail barrier is included.
