Railway Station

The railway station was built in 1848 for the Great Grimsby and Sheffield Junction Railway, later the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway. It features an 11-bay facade, constructed of red brick with simplified pilasters and a yellow brick entablature. The windows are segment-headed and sashed, with stone sills connected by a string course. The central entrance bay projects and incorporates coupled Doric stone pilasters flanking the doorway and an entablature above. The doorway itself has a moulded surround and a bracketed cornice. Small, segment-headed windows are located on either side of the projecting bay. The roof is slate, with some areas renewed with modern tiles, and features pairs of yellow brick chimneys with stone cornices. The platform front is entirely faced in yellow brick, with four windows, bay windows with three stone mullions, a doorway, two windows and another doorway arranged from left to right. The front of the building remains unaltered, apart from the addition of a small canopy following the removal of the train shed roof. Internally, the booking hall and men's lavatory are unaltered. The opposite platform has a blind wall with segmented headed recesses. A timber passenger shelter was added after the train shed roof was removed. Originally, the train shed was covered by a trussed roof spanning the tracks and resting on the walls.

In a second instance, this building, dating from circa 1850, has an 11-bay facade of red brick with simplified pilasters and a yellow brick entablature. It features segment-headed windows with sashed glazing and a stone string course at sill level. The central entrance bay projects, with coupled Doric stone pilasters on either side of the door and an entablature above. A broad doorway is surrounded by moulding and topped with a bracketed cornice. Segment headed windows flank the projecting bay. The roof is slate, partially renewed with modern tiles, and features pairs of yellow brick chimneys with stone cornices. Only this external facade survives; all other elements such as canopies have been demolished.
