Description
Marston Moor Signal Box is a railway signal box built in 1910 for the Southern Division of the North Eastern Railway. It is constructed of timber with horizontal weatherboarding set on a brick sill course, topped with a Welsh slate roof.
The exterior features a small, single-storey design located on the former platform of Marston Moor station. It has continuous glazing on the front and gable ends, consisting of timber sashes divided into three rows of small panes. The front (south) windows are arranged from left to right as follows: a 6-pane sliding window, a 6-pane fixed window, another 6-pane fixed window, and a 12-pane sliding window. Access to the signal box is from the west gable. The plain slated roof overhangs at the eaves and verges, finished with plain timber bargeboards that rise to timber spiked-ball finials with ball pendants. The gable ends display name boards in the North Eastern Railway pattern.
Inside, the signal box retains six levers from its original 1873 pattern McKenzie & Holland frame, which originally had 16 levers.
