Description
Seaford Railway Station is a railway station that serves as the terminus of the line from Lewes, originally built by the London Brighton and South Coast Railway in 1860. The building features painted stucco cement and slate roofs, designed in an Italianate style. The central block is two storeys high, flanked by single storey wings. The main facade has a 2-3-2 window arrangement, with the ground floor featuring a three-bay centre that includes two arched-headed sash windows and an off-centre arched door. The wings each have two segmental-headed windows on both the ground and first floors, repeated in the three central bays, all of which are four-pane plate glass sashes.
A canopy supported by brackets extends over the three central bays, and there is a modillion bracket cornice along the top, with returned hipped gables and two stuccoed stalks. The single storey wings have straight-headed and segmental-headed openings, with a modillion cornice and a single tall stalk on each wing. The platform features a canopy of nine bays, supported by cast-iron columns that have simplified stiff-leaf style capitals branching into stanchions with roundels in the spandrels. The station includes round-headed windows and is noted for being an unaltered and complete example of a terminus station building with its canopies.
