context1: I tried to use a lot of wood, and I tried to work with the contours, textures and vegetation of the Northwest, the wooded environment. Quite often I would have <strong>big</strong>, hovering roofs that would open up to the view. The style was also characterized by <strong>broad</strong> windows, exposed framing, an emphasis on verticality and often a formal T-shape plan.
context2: At its northern end, its terminus was at Hereford Barton. But, this station was not <strong>big</strong> enough to take the five railways converging on the major market town, and so the joint GWR/LNWR Shrewsbury and Hereford Railway and the <strong>broad</strong> gauge GWR sponsored Hereford, Ross and Gloucester Railway agreed the construction of Hereford Barrs Court. A joint opening of both stations took place on December 6, 1853.
