Lartington West signal box

The decrepit remains of Lartington West signal box still cling to life near the northern abutment of Deepdale Viaduct, at the foot of the steep climb up to Stainmore. The line past to box, built by the South Durham & Lancashire Union Railway, was engineered by Thomas Bouch and was operational from 1861 and 1962.
