Upton sign

Upton was the last station of the day, though its position just off a dual carriageway with an entrance strewn liberally with broken glass made it not an entirely nice place to finish the journey. The station sign is on a bridge which looks like it was once the main road before the dual carriageway (behind the camera) was built:
