Lawrencetown Station

Wood Station ~1869 - 1906

Constructed by the Windsor & Annapolis Railway but unknown if it was one of the original 21 stations built in 1869. When the second new station was built in the 1890's (~1895), this first station was turned into a storage shed and eventually was demolished in 1906. (1)

Wood Station ~1894 - Present

A photo of the second station can be found in "A History of Lawrencetown" and describes that John James was the new station master. This is the station with the Gothic windows now found in Walter Thompson's nearby farmyard. (1)

Wood Station 1928 - Present

Built by Hicks Company of Bridgetown. It became largely inactive by 1967 and was moved across the tracks by the fire department in 1976. (1)
