Ham stone ashlar; steeply-pitched Welsh slate roofs with ornamental clay tile ridges between very high coped gables; stone chimney stacks. Mostly single storey, but the station-masters house 3 storeys with attic, north roadside elevation 7 bays, of which bay 2 is the house, with leanto to east; bays 3, 4 and 5 the ticket office and entrance throughway; bay 6 is an office crosswing and bay 7 double-roof plan offices.
