PRESENT STATE: The station building is extant but much altered for its current role as a pub and restaurant. The station building has been extended across the platform between the two wings, and a new canopy is fitted to the front of the extension. The cast iron pillars that supported the old verandah have been retained inside the new extension. A new canopy was fitted to the front of the building above a former carriage that was used as a restaurant. The carriage has been removed and the canopy has been converted into a new restaurant. The trackbed has been filled up to platform level and a small section of the up platform edge is visible. The goods yard has been cleared to make a car park.
