I am currently modelling Tonbridge Station (ex SER) in its 1950s form and am badly in need of plans or good photos of some of the buildings and structures. In particular, I need details of the Tonbridge A and B signal boxes (demolished in the 1960s), the east (down) station starter signal gantry (mounted on the station building?), the water tower, the main east yard goods shed, and the sundry small buildings in the west yard. Also, any photos showing the North side of the T. Ives cricket ball factory would be useful.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

I owe my grateful thanks to Graham Webb whose work on minimum space layouts gave me the inspiration, and to Peter Morley who gave me the motivation to put that inspiration to good use. Also to Richard Wendon for teaching me how to master this website! And a special thank you to my wife Anita and our kids Nevile VII, Emily, Jessie and Fiona who have a lot to put up with - especially when a project overflows from my workshop into the house!
