Description
The signal box and signal at Norham Station, believed to date from 1911, features a ground floor constructed of brick in English bond, with a wooden upper floor and a Welsh slate roof. The signal box was built for the North Eastern Railway, and the first floor reuses materials from an earlier system.
The structure is two storeys high and consists of one bay. It has a three-light mullioned window on the ground floor, while the first floor is fitted with large small-paned windows on three sides. There are wooden steps on the right side that lead to a projecting wooden porch with a boarded door. The roof is gabled and has a corniced stack at the rear.
Additionally, there is a tall, tapering signal featuring a trellised design and an elongated spike finial, along with an attached iron ladder.
