Description
Belford Station is a station built around 1847 by Benjamin Green for the Newcastle and Berwick Railway. It is constructed of ashlar stone and features a Welsh slate roof in a Tudor style. The building has an H-plan layout with single-storey extensions on either side. The entrance is located in the cross wing to the right.
The station is two storeys tall with a one-bay design that includes an arcaded ground floor featuring three 4-centred arches, angle buttresses, and a 3-light mullioned window above. The central section to the left is 1.5 storeys high, with a Tudor-arched door on the left, a bay window on the right, and a 2-light gabled half-dormer above. The cross wing on the left has a single-storey projection at the front.
To the right, there is a single-storey, 2-bay waiting room that has 2- and 1-light windows, along with a canted bay window on the gable end. The roofs are gabled and hipped, featuring ridged coping, kneelers, and ball finials. The station has tall diagonally-set chimneys with 2 and 3 conjoined shafts. The platform side displays similar architectural details, and the left cross wing includes a 2-storey canted bay window. There is also a later 19th-century glazed lean-to against the central section, and in front of the waiting rooms, a lean-to roof is supported by an arcade of four square, corniced wooden columns with serrated brackets.
