Description
Horsted Keynes Railway Station is a railway station built in 1882 for the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway, designed by architect T W Myres. The building features a combination of brick and timber framing, which has been later covered with bands of plain and curved tiles. It has tiled roofs with moulded chimneystacks and some windows with tinted glass. The booking hall, located to the south, is a single-storey brick structure with coved eaves decorated with stucco patterns of pot plants. It has a hipped tiled roof and a brick chimneystack, along with four sash windows and a projecting gabled wooden porch on a moulded brick plinth, featuring a timberframed pattern and double doors with tinted glass. The interior remains unaltered, including the fireplace and booking windows.
To the north of the station is the attached stationmaster's house, which ranges from one to two storeys. The ground floor is brick, while the first floor is tile-hung. The house has a tiled roof with three clustered brick chimneystacks and projecting gables at both the front and back. The front gable features an oriel window and a four-light mullioned and transomed casement window on the ground floor. An underground passage made of painted brick connects the station building to the platforms. Platforms 1 and 2/3 still have columned canopies with waiting rooms and kiosks. The structure on platform 4/5 was demolished early in the 21st century and is currently being rebuilt using columns from Hassocks and Havant. This station is now part of the Bluebell Railway.
