Chesterfiedl/Scotland, OH: Interurban Depot

(Satellite, this is where Scotland used to be. I could not find the depot on the aerial photo below.)

Tiny Depot in Chesterland, Ohio.
Robert Livrone: Why does the Chesterfield Station have 'Scotland' on it?

Dennis DeBruler commented on Robert's comment
Because the interurban used to go through Scotland instead of Chesterland. And because the boundaries of Chesterland have been expanded to now include much more than just Scotland. According to this topo map (1905/62 Mentor Quad @ 62,500) and land scars on a satellite image, the interurban crossed Mayfield Road about here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/vXixF4BKihxzrutg6. But I could not find the depot. The name of the interurban was Cleveland & Chardon Electric.
