Detached two-bay two-storey former railway station, built c. 1849. Comprising gable-fronted projection to front (north) elevation, three-bay single-storey block to west elevation and two-bay single-storey block to east. Pitched slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks, timber bargeboards and cast-iron rainwater goods. Pitched slate roof to west block having brick chimneystacks. Rendered walls. Dressed limestone walls with limestone plinth course to west block. Square-headed window openings to central block having limestone sills. Square-headed window openings to east block. Square-headed window openings to west block with brick block-and-start surrounds. Camber-headed opening to west block having brick block-and-start surround and timber replacement door.
A well composed middle size railway station that, although no longer serving its original intended purpose, retains some of its original form and fabric. It was on the Dublin Heuston to Cork Kent railway line that was run by the Great Southern and Western Railway company. Features such as the limestone walls, slate roof and brick dressings enhance the architectural value of the composition. It also forms a group with other railway related structures such as the railway bridge and footbridge.
