Railway Station and Footbridge

The railway station and footbridge date from around 1845, with later additions in 1890 and 1914. The station was originally built for the Cheltenham and Great Western Union Railway, likely under the direction of Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and was subsequently taken over by the Great Western Railway in 1844. The buildings are constructed of limestone rubble and ashlar, with Welsh slate roofs.

The up platform building is a "cottage" style structure reflecting Brunel’s design, with additions from 1890 and 1914. It has coursed ashlar limestone walls on a limestone plinth, with projecting limestone quoins and raised ashlar window dressings. The building features ashlar chimneys with high-level drip course mouldings and parapets to the gables. The platform canopy is supported by cast iron cantilever brackets with a circular motif, and has a decorative timber fascia with a dogs tooth or chevron pattern. The north-east side features a projecting wing, with extensions to the re-entrant angle and at both ends.

The down platform building, dating from around 1914, is built in coursed ashlar limestone with detailing intended to match the earlier up platform building. It includes projecting details, a plinth, and ashlar surrounds to flat arched doorways. The canopy has a low, mono-pitched roof with a modern felt covering.

Both buildings contain station offices and waiting rooms, though the interiors lack distinctive features. Various chamfered timber mullion and transom windows, some with opening casements, are present in both buildings.

A steel and timber covered footbridge connects the up and down platforms at the north-west end, crossing a valley and roadway on a brick viaduct. The station has group value with the adjacent viaduct, the railway goods shed, and the Hill-Paul Mill building.
