Description

The engine shed, which originally housed the line's Manning-Wardle 0-6-0 saddle tank locomotives Nos 374 and 668, as well as the similar engine 'Alyn' Cambrian No. 824 from 1864, is constructed of yellow brick laid in English bond and features a slate roof with a louvred smoke box. The original off-centre locomotive openings that straddle the line have timber lintels but have been largely blocked. The shed includes sixteen-paned cast iron windows with moulded rose-pattern bosses at the intersections and stone sills, topped with two half-brick segmental heads. There was a pair of double side doors that have now been replaced, and it has one lateral brick stack. To the immediate east, there is a small red brick station building that has been significantly altered and stands on the original platform.
