Description

Cliff Railway Station and Stoneway Guest House is a funicular railway station and former temperance restaurant, now serving as a guest house. It was built in 1892 by G. Croydon Marks. The building is constructed of whitewashed brick and features a plain-tile roof with end stacks. It has three storeys, with the station located beneath the guest house.

The central entrance is flanked by two orders of pilasters, leading to part-glazed double doors that are topped with an overlight displaying "Cliff Railway Station" in gilt letters. To the left, a curving flight of steps ascends and marks the start of the Stoneway steps, which are adorned with a brick and stone balustrade as well as a pierced stone balustrade.

The guest house has a five-window range of sash windows with glazing bars, and the ground floor features brick segmental arches. The central doorway consists of a two-leaf part-glazed door. At the rear, the building jetties out over the railway and includes a pair of part-glazed entrances to the waiting room, which connects to the railway that runs in a cutting to the upper station.
