Default Question about Broad Street

I think the station remains are still visible from the Hertford North
branch at the back of Bounds Green GNER depot. The aerial photo on
Multimap suggests it is still there

The platforms and tracks were still there in the late-1970s, and were
used by trains to the household coal depot, which was situated between
the station and Bounds Green Depot.

Access was from the north end, and the coal depot had a pit road that
the 21-ton hoppers were discharged into. Wagons could be moved along
the pit road by means of a motor-driven steel cable.
