Wateringbury Signal Box

Wateringbury Signal Box was built in 1893 and is a Saxby and Farmer Type 12 design, constructed for the Maidstone to Paddock Wood branch of the South Eastern Railway, which opened in 1844. The signal box features a locking floor made of brick, while the operating room is timber framed and clad in weatherboarding, topped with a gabled slate roof.

The exterior consists of two storeys, with four windows facing the railway line and either three windows or two windows and a door at the ends. The roof has overhanging eaves and carved wooden bargeboards. Each window contains four panes, and there is an iron access balcony. The door to the operating room has been replaced, but the original door to the locking room remains, along with its window. The brick steps leading to the operating room were added in the 1950s and are not considered of special interest.

Inside, the operating room has an inserted ceiling, and a panel added in the 1990s is not of special interest. However, the walls are boarded, and there are nine levers from a 26 lever frame of the 1888 Duplex type, along with several block instruments, including a computator and bell.
