also it looks as if the cutting walls have been replaced so maybe the old entrance has long gone
no haha that is not trees in the tunnel that is the old closed hodson street bridge in the photo, yes it would be great to see a station here i would use it for one
but look how long merseyrail spent on just upgrading sandhills station think we will have a long wait haha
Hi Oritelad
Yet again you say hardly any info which implies there is some. Please let us know what that info is!

I will be the first to hold my hand up and congratulate you on finding a long forgotten station but for now all evidence points to it not having existed.
The extract from the MT6 report I posted last night also blows holes in the idea of low level platforms at great howard street. It was impossible for passenger trains to run without the consent of the BoT and the LNWR did not request this until 1895.
