Ongar Station

Ongar Station is a railway station and station master's house that was opened in 1865, originally part of the Great Eastern Railway, which began in 1858. The building is constructed of red brick with gault rusticated quoins and gault dressed windows featuring segmented heads and keystones. There are gault bands at the eaves and above and below the ground and first floor windows. Stone cills and stone cill supports are present throughout.

The house is two stories tall, with a hipped roof, while there is a single-storey central ticket office block attached, along with a hipped single-storey crosswing waiting room, all covered with grey slate roofs. The window arrangement consists of a 1:2:2:1 pattern of double-hung sliding sashes, with a single matching window on the first floor of the house.

Between the house and the crosswing is a glazed lean-to infill porch, supported by four large cast iron brackets with circular designs in the spandrels. The central double doors are half-glazed with a light above. The front of the house features a three-window range of matching double-hung sash windows, with a central four-panel door and a light above, all of which match the station's frontage.

Internally, the station retains all original features, including panelled walls with six pilaster strips and a centrally placed ticket opening. There are four-panelled doors with moulded surrounds and aprons to the windows. The platform face has an enclosed, glazed lean-to.
