Description
Shanklin Railway Station was built in 1864 and extended in 1881 for the Isle of Wight Railway. The original section, located to the north-east, includes the Stationmaster's house and a short wing on either side. It is constructed from stock brick with a slate roof and decorative ridge tiles, featuring an irregular shape. The building has two storeys and two windows, with a gable and two round-headed sash windows on the first floor. The ground floor includes a plain sash window and a doorcase with a four-panelled door. A central square brick chimneystack with four octagonal chimneypots is present, along with a tower at the rear topped with a pyramidal roof. The 1881 extension to the south-west is made of red brick, has a half-hipped slate roof with decorative ridge tiles, and is a single storey. It features three round-headed arched windows with a cogged band between them and one door. Inside, there is an original boarded ticket office. A wooden canopy supported on iron brackets, adorned with the crest of the railway company, runs the full length of the station, and there is also a canopy on the platform side, although the fretwork has been removed.
