Description
Newton-le-Willows Station is a railway station for the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, built in the 1840s. It is constructed of brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof. The building has two storeys and is divided into six bays. The first three bays are recessed and have a 20th-century canopy, while the fourth bay is gabled. The ground floor of the fourth, fifth, and sixth bays is made of rock-faced stone. The third bay includes a re-entrant porch with a parapet and entrances on the return side. The ground floor windows consist of two, two, three, and six-light stone mullioned designs, with the windows in the third and fourth bays featuring high transoms. The first floor has three, four, three, four, two, and two-light windows with four-centred heads. The left return side has a four-light window with a transom. There are two brick stacks on the building. The platform side has a single storey with a canopy, possibly added later, supported by cast-iron columns. This side has five bays, with the third bay projecting under a gable. The windows here are arranged as two, two, two, four, and three-light, all with four-centred heads. There are four Tudor-arched entrances located at the left end, to the left of the projecting bay, at the projecting bay, and to its right; one of these entrances features doors with linenfold panelling.
