What is recorded here
Detached four-bay single-storey railway goods shed, built c. 1870, with lower office projection to south gable, and canopy to west elevation. Now disused. Pitched corrugated-iron roof, and slate roof to projection, latter with brick chimneystack with limestone coping. Coursed rubble limestone walls with limestone voussoirs to segmental-arched openings, latter with multiple-pane fixed timber windows with limestone sills. Metal sheeting to doorway in south gable. Square-headed window to office, with barred six-over-six pane timber sliding sash window. Square-headed door openings to east elevation, with brick retaining arches and remains of sliding timber battened doors. Memorial to train crash at site.
This goods shed forms part of an interesting group of related structures with the former railway station, signal box and platform to the site. It retains much of its original detailing, including the sliding timber battened doors. The site was the scene of a fatal railway accident in 1980, commemorated by a monument.
