These two stained glass works are incorporated into each end of the original glazed canopy protecting passengers on the platform from the vagaries of the weather.

‘Beach’, executed in a bold and colourful style, was designed from a schools competition won by Rosalind Hurst.

‘Shipyards’ is more abstract in its treatment of the business of the river.
