Strathpeffer Station

Strathpeffer Station
Strathpeffer Station also known as the Old Station a former Highland Railway terminus in the village of Strathpeffer, Ross-shire, in the Scottish Highlands, about 4 miles west of Dingwall. The main station building opened on 3 June 1885 as the terminus of a short branch line from Fodderty Junction (on the Dingwall to Kyle of Lochalsh line). It was built to serve the Victorian spa town , which was popular for its sulphurous springs.

Now used for the Highland Museum of Childhood — a museum focusing on the history of childhood in the Highlands, with toys, games, and exhibits. It opened in the early 1990s and is one of the main draws for visitors.
A café (often praised for its homemade bakes and relaxed atmosphere in the vintage railway setting).
Small retail units, craft shops, and community spaces,

HFF and a good weekend.!

I love the wood panelling, Roger. The pitched-slate roof and the chimney pots are typical of Victorian railway architecture. I hope you have an excellent Bank Holiday weekend. Kindest regards, Joe
