The second platform closed in 1928.
The track was removed soon after through services to Liverpool Street

I can remember the track being used by through freight in "F" stock
days.

I am not old enough to remember 1928. I wonder how soon after 1966?
I must have just been there very briefly in the 1970s, seen the space

You could have thought there was track if you didn't see the ground. The
other platform didn't look that derelict.
