The dark-brick building on this newly developed cul-de-sac, now known as The Sidings, was the combined station building (ticket office etc.) and the station master's house. This older building passed into private ownership in 1990. The single-storey red brick building appears to be a newer addition and was perhaps (?) created in this style in order to achieve planning permission? The ramp seems likely to have served previously as a staithe for loading coal from wagons onto coal lorries.
