SUMMARY:Archive And Library Open Day - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:Network Rail and Govia Thameslink (GTR) have now undertaken additional works which\, we hope\, will cure the damp problems at the Stationmaster’s House.  GTR’s contractors have rectifed the damp areas internally but not completed timber repais as yet.  Some shelving is till stored and dust covering on all other shelves while that work is undertaken.  It is not therefore practical to open the Archive to visitors on this day. \nOur apologies for any inconvenience\, please attend at an open day later in the summer.
