Description

Stone Railway Station is a railway station built around 1848. It is constructed of brick with blue brick diapering and ashlar dressings, featuring a three-span tile roof with brick stacks. The building is designed in a Jacobean style and has a U-plan layout. It stands two storeys high and has a three-window range. An entablature runs over the ground floor, which is adorned with three shaped gables; the end gables project forward and are accented with quoins.

The ground floor includes a central loggia with tripartite round arches supported by antae, faceted keys, and some voussoirs. There are elliptical-headed entrances at each end, each with overlights consisting of two elliptical-headed lights, a six-panel door on the left, and a four-panel door on the right. The entrances to the loggia have similar faceted-panel doors. Flanking the end entrances are two-light double-chamfered-mullioned transomed windows, with elliptical-headed lights above and below the transoms. Similar windows are found flanking the loggia, which features an elliptical-headed casement with three lights above.

On the first floor, there is a central five-light window and end three-light windows, both under dripstones. The end gables are decorated with cartouches. The building has two stacks with ashlar cornices at the valleys. The left return to the platform includes a single-storey range under a hipped roof, featuring four entrances and windows with two and three lights. The right end has a six-faceted-panel door, while the other doors are half-glazed. There is a three-light window on the first floor, and an addition to the left end has an entrance framed by an architrave. The altered canopy is supported by enriched cast-iron brackets. The right return is similar, with three-light windows. The rear of the building has a projecting central gable with an end stack and a canted bay window at the end of the left wing.

Inside, the central room features a cornice and moulded beams with panelled soffits.
