We are delighted to welcome Anne Harrey as our new artist in the Station Waiting Room Art Gallery. Anne is from Glossop and she enjoys painting in a wide range of mediums. She belongs to three local Art groups and regularly attends workshops.

















Anne has eleven pictures on display reflecting the diversity of her work. Paintings include summer landscapes of Dovedale, seascapes and a very appealing orang utan! Anne's pictures have already attracted praise and have cheerfully brought Spring to the Waiting Room!
There is information about the paintings and Anne available in the waiting room. Anne's pictures may be purchased.

A new display remembering the station's Lowestoft connection

A NEW permanent display is now on view in the Waiting Room.
An abbreviated version of our Poetry Platform display from last year, it tells the story of the part Glossop played in the Lowestoft Evacuation of June 1940 and celebrates the continuing links between the two towns.
Several of the evacuees and their families unveiled a commemorative plaque on the station when they visited us from Lowestoft in June last year.
The new display, which includes some first hand accounts, is a reminder of those events from the second World War.
