The canopy on platform 2 of Kettering railway station in England as seen in 2004. The station was opened in May 1857 by the Midland Railway; it was designed by C. H. Driver, with particularly fine "pierced grill" cast ironwork on the platforms. Although it was altered between 1879 and 1884 when the line was quadrupled and again in 1896, Kettering station is one of the best remaining examples of Midland architecture.
