The original ‘NRS’ was opened in 1839 by the ‘Midland Counties Railway’.
Substantially rebuilt in 1904 by the now ‘Midland Railway’ using brick, terracotta and faience (a form of glazed terracotta) instead of stone.
Further re-worked in 2013 when the trackwork was remodelled resulting in the beautiful building seen today.
All of the images in this blog show part of the station exterior in the background.
