NT 4309 7231 An archive assessment, photographic survey and watching brief have been carried out on the site of the former railway station. The archive assessment has shown the development and eventual abandonment of the railway station. The photographic survey established and recorded the presence of surviving features associated with the former railway station. The watching brief recorded the build of the main platform embankment and revealed the remains of four structures associated with the railway station. It is unclear what these structures represent although they correspond to structures depicted on the earlier editions of the Ordnance Survey maps published when the railway station was in operation.
