A panoramic view of the terminus facing the buffers with Hudson's sack office, the weigh bridge office and Hutchings coal office on the right. During the 1930s after cessation of passenger traffic there were just four members of staff employed, a station master; a checker; a porter and relief clerk. The station master was Jack Bourne and he was responsible for all of the stations on the branch line which required him to prepare all the consignment notes, the accounts and the four weekly reports.
