Network Rail has notified the city council that it plans to demolish the former superintendent’s office building at Exeter St David’s station in October.
The demolition will take place under Network Rail’s permitted development powers as part of a platform lengthening scheme.
A photographic heritage record of the turn of the century red brick building, which will be replaced by fencing and bike racks, shows its original garden square setting.
Parts of the building will be incorporated into a new station building on the Cholsey & Wallingford heritage railway.
