Portchester?

Aldermaston it is well done!
Too late...I tried that one unsuccessfully yesterdaySevenoaks
Ashford (Kent)?
Gosh that was quick yes it is indeedPleasington
Peter,Archive time again then... while this is obviously somewhere on the Southern area, where exactly is it...?
I was very surprised when my Sevenoaks answer came out as wrong as I was pretty convinced that’s where it was and that footbridge is quite distinctive. I only then went for Ashford as I knew it had a footbridge in pre International days but couldn’t remember exactly what it looked like.Peter,
Sorry- I query whether your photograph was taken at Ashford.
The old layout prior to rebuilding in 1990 were two island platforms the present platforms 1, 2, 3 and 4. Platforms 1 and 2 (upside) as now. Platforms 3 and 4 (downside) which subsquently became the Eurostar platforms. Platforms 5 and 6 were new platforms built after 1986. Between platforms 2 and 3 were the two fast lines as now.
Can you re-examine your records as one member plus myself are convinced it is Sevenoaks.

Burnley BarracksThanks. Try this.
Not there sorryBurnley Barracks
Thanks for such a comprehensive explanation! Don’t worry we allOn it.... Gimme 5 mins....
Right... the photo before that is definitely Ashford, taken at 13.53. The photo after it is definitely Orpington, taken at 15.28.
The time I have written down for the picture in question is 14.09; I suspect that it is indeed Sevenoaks ( in which case it should be ls2270's floor ) and I must have the time wrong as well... 15.09 would make more sense wouldn't it?
I think you must be right and I will amend my albums and database immediately, and apologies to all.
I'll do a picture of the album page in a minute on my phone and add it in here for context - with the amendment made! ( Done - don't know why it's come out sideways, and apologies for the lack of sharpness - had problems with reflections from the skylights and windows and ended up having to hold the page at a funny angle and try using the phone with one hand... but the preceding and subsequent images are clearly Ashford and Orpington. )
Thanks for such a comprehensive explanation! Don’t worry we all
make mistakes...especially when it comes to something from 34 plus years ago!
Thanks for investigating and your replies.Thank you. I most likely made the error right back then when I put the photo in my original scrapbook albums and simply copied it over when I moved the pictures into proper photo albums about ten years ago - and then of course into my database last week!
When the restrictions are lifted, perhaps I should invite you round to go through all my photo albums looking for similar blunders!Thanks for investigating and your replies.
