Clacton on Sea Station

The original Clacton on Sea Railway structure had been a two storey building in clapboard with a shallow pitched roof and twin gables but was replaced in 1929 by the LNER. Uncharacteristically for that company in East Anglia, a grand two-storey entrance building with sweeping wings and broad forecourt were provided more reminiscent of the Southern Railway's efforts of the time at Whitstable, Ramsgate, Broadstairs and Margate, albeit with more of a leaning toward the use of the LNER's usual Neo-Georgian.
