This goods shed has survived almost intact. It has many features of note, typical of such structures, such as the fine arched carriage entrances and the oversailing canopies to the long sides. Its general walling, typical of goods sheds, is rougher than that of the railway station, emphasising its more utilitarian function. Together with the station, the waiting room and the footbridge, this goods shed is part of a significant group of railway structures.
