Dates from 1891, an 8 road shed, that used to be home for about 40 steam locomotives in the old BR steam era. It was closed in 1966.
The old Saltney Ferry passenger station was adjacent to this shed. Opened in 1890, it was a single 'island' platform, which closed in 1962. Passengers used to access the platform by steps from the road bridge.
