Skegness Signal Box

Skegness Signal Box is a Grade II listed building, originally constructed in 1882 for the Great Northern Railway and extended in 1900. It is made of timber and features a slate roof.

The exterior of the signal box is rectangular, originally comprising five bays but now six, with a steeply pitched roof adorned with decorative bargeboards and finials at the gable ends. The locking room has two 18-pane Yorkshire sash windows on the south-east side and three smaller windows on the north-west side. The operations room features a Yorkshire sash window in each bay, nearly reaching the full height of the room on the south-east side and half the south-west gable end, resulting in a nearly continuous line of glazing. The two outer bays have 6x6 panes, while the central four windows have 12x12 panes. The north-west elevation includes a series of narrower 6x6 Yorkshire sashes. Access to the operations room is provided by external timber steps at the north-east gable end, and the locking room is accessible through the south-west gable end.

Inside, the operations room houses a lever frame with a block shelf and equipment above, along with built-in cupboards against the north-west wall. The locking room features a brick floor, and the original signalling mechanism is still in place.
