Exeter sheds as pre-preservation features
==Pattern shop==
Is there still one? I thoughtit thought it was removed with the old containers?--[[User:Patrick Hearn|Patrick Hearn]] ([[User talk:Patrick Hearn|talk]]) 18:10, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
: I'd be a little surprised if it was completely gone. For some reason, I thought it was in the main building, somewhere around the border of the main shed and the boiler shop, but that is about where the containers are... --[[User:Danny252|Danny252]] ([[User talk:Danny252|talk]]) 18:51, 29 July 2018 (UTC)
: Yes, we still have an active pattern shop and store, located nearby [[User:Madderlake|Madderlake]] ([[User talk:Madderlake|talk]]) 08:22, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
==Placeholder for contract overhaul boilers==
Placeholder for contract overhaul boilers. Please add. I've included the Hollycombe locomotive and Ivatt 2 tank and two IoM ones. Was there a TR one after Dolgoch too?--[[User:Patrick Hearn|Patrick Hearn]] ([[User talk:Patrick Hearn|talk]]) 11:05, 13 April 2019 (UTC)
==Exeter Sheds and other buildings==
These prefabricated concrete sheds, situated behind the boiler shop, were used for stores. They were demolished as part of the car park project.
The oil store building and Hanbury's Cottage (an old, can't remember ther date, OS map has it as Ambrose cottage) could also do with mention.
I don't know enough to help. [[User:Madderlake|Madderlake]] ([[User talk:Madderlake|talk]]) 08:22, 3 April 2021 (UTC)
:I've added Hanbury Cottage under points of interest on the main Bridgnorth page. If it is still used by the MPD then we can refer to it and add a link from this page. I've briefly mentioned the oil store; it could do with its own picture but I don't think I've ever photographed it. I can't really add details on the Exeter sheds, maybe someone else has more info on them> --[[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 16:16, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
::I recall reading [https://www.national-preservation.com/threads/severn-valley-railway-to-launch-%C2%A34-000-000-share-issue.33047/page-15 on Nat Pres] disappointment at the removal of the Exeter sheds as genuine, pre-preservation, features but that thread is contradictory. They are mentioned [http://mediafiles.thedms.co.uk/Publication/HF-VW/cms/pdf/Severn%20Valley%20Railway%20-%20Bridgnorth%20Station%20Makeover.pdf here in 2012 (p. 16)] and a record of their demolition is on the dormant [https://twitter.com/SVREngsteam/status/265400068369166336/photo/1 SVR Engineering Twitter feed in November 2012--[[User:Patrick Hearn|Patrick Hearn]] ([[User talk:Patrick Hearn|talk]]) 17:24, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
