The branch was single track and the station had only a single platform located on the south side of the line. It was provided with an attractive cottage ornée building consisting of a two-storey station house and contiguous single-storey office range. The gables were adorned with pierced bargeboards. At the west end of the platform there was a turntable. The station also had goods facilities located on the north side of the branch which included two sidings, a goods shed and a loading ramp. There was also an engine shed on east side of the site.^[1] Only station building remains as a private residence today.
