But the work did not take place as planned:

and the signal was actually converted to automatic on 6 September of that year.

The signal is shown as already an automatic in the resignalling notice S.2498, so unknown what it was converted to an automatic from...

Alterations in connection with Reversible Signalling

From 6 March 1977 the signal was mounted on a right-hand cantilever, in readiness for the future conversion to controlled (SN.83) and installation of SN.683.
