Full Description
It had a single platform on the west side of a loop, and a goods yard on the east side. The 1st edition OS map shows the small station building, another building, and a weighing machine in the goods yard, and at the south end of the site a turntable and engine shed.
The 2nd edition OS map also shows a signal box (opened in 1893 and closed in 1927), a signal post, two additional buildings, and a crane in the yard.
The station closed to passengers in 1951, with the line closing completely in 1966. The buildings and track have been almost entirely removed.
A site visit in 2023 as part of the SCAPE Coastal Zone Assessment Survey recorded half of the stone foundations of the turntable visible in the grass.
