| Sherburn-In-Elmet. I was there yesterday! |
Dale Cooper has it by a whisker! SHERB (urn-in-elm) ET.
Last time I was in Sherburn-In-Elmet I had to catch the train to South Milford and get picked up from there, there again it was about thirty years ago and I believe wasn't (and isn't) directly accessible from Leeds.

For today's clue, I'm taking you to the movies. The Road to Hong Kong (1962) starring Bing Crosby, Bob Hope, Joan Collins and Dorothy Lamour.
In the film, when they're all at sea, Joan turns to Dorothy and asks ""Where's Bing?" To which Dorothy replies "He’s astern Bob’s junk".

Robertsbridge?
I'd been thinking Leyton, in the north-east quarter of Greater London -- find, as above, that I was mis-spelling it.
(@Caboose Class didn't say about Falconwood / LB as suggested above; but I find the forums' quoting mechanism as it is nowadays, a frequent trial !)

Besses o'th'Barn?

Besses o’th’ Barn (a station on the Manchester Metrolink) is the correct answer. It’s an anagram of “He’s astern Bob’s”. The movie “The Road to Hong Kong” really had nothing to do with the answer apart from providing me with the anagram indicator “junk” - which also enabled me to incorporate the two apostrophes into the original clue.

Sorry, Swinderby is not the answer. As a subtle hint I'll add some punctuation:
A change of 10dB for each. Station in the East Midlands is revealed.
