(Location cited as NO 307 097). Ladybank Station, opened 1857 by the Edinburgh and Northern Rly, architect probably David Bell. A two-platform through station with the main offices on the down platform. These are in a 2- and 3-storey, coursed-rubble building, incorporating a dwellinghouse, and with an unglazed platform awning supported on cast-iron columns. The platform is at first-floor level. The up-platform building is a wood and brick structure, of typical North British Rly design, with a bracketted awning. The platforms are linked by an underground passage.
