Memorial to John thebeloved and only child of John Griffiths of the City of Hereford, surgeon, and Margaret his wife, died xx September 1821 aged 18 years
Perhaps the hour that took our joy
Has kindly spared some heavier doom
Snatched him from scenes of guilty joy
Or from the pangs of ills to come
May this blest theme then cheer our heart
The grave is not our darling's prison
The stone which hides his mortal part
Shall roll away and he be risen
John Griffiths died 31st January 1837 aged 72 years
Margaret Griffiths died 17th January 1844 aged 75
(Memorial signed Jennings)

This section of the Runcorn to Weaver Junction line at Sutton Weaver is (as far as can be established) the only location were it is clear and open for the sun rising and obtaining images on the east side of the line, therefore made the most of it. Unfortunately, Network Rail are what I call a bit lazy in dismantling life expired structures such as the original stanctions on this line which have been in place since the 1960's! In many places NR have renewed stanctions and other bits but left the original infrastructure in place making the locations untidy and mis-mash sadly. In the meantime, Freightliner, No 66550 passes Sutton Weaver on 4L58 04:55 Ditton to London Gateway 'liner' which operates 7/8 minutes after 4O14 has passed. 11 June 2025.

Sutton Park Station goods yard on 02/10/80.
Situated on the Midland Railway's Walsall to Water Orton line, Sutton Park station closed to passengers in 1965. The main station building lingered on in commercial use for many years but is now demolished. The Sutton Park line itself is still open as a busy freight route.
This view was taken from the old platform where trains for Birmingham once called. We're looking across the tracks at the goods yard.
