Railway Station

The railway Station offers a mixed environment. 

The original sandstone station buildings and associated glazed canopy on the northbound platform are attractive, modest structures, grade II listed, which contrast in scale with the massive curved railway Viaduct on the southern approach to the Station, a majestic, elegant Grade II listed structure. 

The Station was extended in the 1960’s and the flimsy, flat roofed, short-life buildings that serve the eastern approach are not only uninspired but also approaching the end of their planned life and are in need of replacement.
