caption_attribution_description: English: Inner Space Stations self storage centre in Layerthorpe, York.
context_page_description: Layerthorpe is a former village and latterly industrial district to the north-east of the centre of the city of York, North Yorkshire, England. It is just outside the city walls of York.
context_section_description: All the railway lines in the Layerthorpe area had been closed by 1989, and the route of the DVLR and part of the Branch Line is now a footpath and cycle-path.  The Branch Line's sidings and the Corporation's premises have been replaced by a variety of industrial and retail units (and increasingly, residential), although the refuse destructor's octagonal chimney (a Grade II listed building, approximately 55 metres high) has been preserved next to Morrisons supermarket on Foss Islands Road.  No trace of the railway station remains, and Hallfield Road, a through-route to the A1079 since 2007, contains much recent housing.  New buildings are also beginning to appear on the gasworks site.
