What is recorded here
Detached platform shelter, erected c.1880, at Tuam Railway Station. Now disused. Pitched corrugated-iron roof on light steel trusses with braces, supported at rear side by brick wall having rendered base and rectangular panels with moulded brick surrounds, and at centre of plan by cast-iron brackets supported on round cast-iron columns with Corinthian capitals. Spandrels to brackets have ornate vegetal decoration.
This platform shelter is a fine example of cast-iron work and railway engineering and is an important part of the architectural and engineering ensemble at Tuam Railway Station.
