Passenger statistics from the Office of Rail and Road |
The station has two platforms connected by a ramped footbridge over the line, which opened in the summer of 2014. Before the footbridge was built, the platforms were linked by a surface crossing.[1]
The station house has been converted for private use – a private dwelling and an office. The station is now unstaffed; all tickets must be obtained from the inspector on the train, as there are no ticket machines at the station.[2]
Facilities are limited to shelters on each platform and a help point and departure board for passenger enquiries and information about oncoming trains. There is bicycle storage and a small car park.[3]
