Like its neighbour at Gristhorpe, the former station house here remains standing as a private dwelling. The former signal box here has though been demolished, as the level crossing it worked has been converted to automatic barrier operation.[1][2] One platform has also survives, though it is heavily overgrown and difficult to see.
