Description
The former railway station in Pocklington was built in 1847 by G. T. Andrews. It is constructed of red brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof. The station complex includes a booking hall, a covered platform at the rear, and a linking wing to the left that connects to the station master's house.
The booking hall is a single-storey structure with seven bays arranged in a 1:5:1 pattern. It has a moulded plinth and rusticated quoins. The central five bays are recessed behind an arcade of five round-headed arches, which have a continuous drip moulding and are supported by pilasters with moulded bases and capitals. The entrance features a central two-leaf, six-panelled door topped by a fanlight with radial glazing, set within an architrave that includes imposts, a moulded round arch, and a shaped projecting keystone. Flanking the door are sash windows with glazing bars, each set in shouldered architraves with moulded sills and a sill band. The flanking bays also have rusticated quoins and central sash windows with similar detailing. The building is topped with a deep bracketed eaves cornice, a low parapet, and has three axial stacks on a hipped roof.
The covered platform is also a single storey, consisting of five bays and a half-bay at each end. It features rusticated corner pilasters, pilaster buttresses, and a narrow string below the coved eaves cornice, all beneath a hipped roof.
The linking wing to the left is designed in the same style as the booking hall and the station master's house. It is a single storey with three bays, featuring a moulded plinth and three blocked doors within architraves. The wing has a moulded cornice and a parapet that conceals a low-pitched roof.
