Daisyfield Signal Box

Daisyfield Signal Box is a railway signal box built in 1873 for the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, designed by Saxby and Farmer in their Type 6 style from around 1869. The structure is made of brick and features a Welsh slate roof.

The exterior is simple and plain, consisting of a two-storey building with a small footprint and a low-pitched hipped roof. There are entrances on the southern side for both the lower floor, which serves as the locking room, and the upper floor, which is the operating area. The front of the building has a continuous expanse of glazing with short, uPVC windows. Originally, the front windows were made up of two groups of three sash windows, where the central window in each group was fixed and the others slid horizontally, all divided by glazing bars. Although the modern windows fit the original openings, they have a different pattern. The windows in the locking room have also been replaced but maintain the original openings with segmental heads. A modern staircase with a toilet extension is located on the top landing.

Inside, the signal box retains a lever frame, which is a reconditioned frame from the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railways that was installed at Daisyfield in 1943.
