St Anne’s Station had a historic past before succumbing to changing times and eventual demolition in the early 90s to make way for new developments.
There was an unused platform on the landward side of the track which had been neglected for years and was an eyesore for tourists arriving at a new station built in the 80s. British Rail cleared the site to make way for a new development.
