The high level shed steelwork frame was covered in cladding to provide weather protection for the goods being transhiped

The high level shed steelwork frame was covered in cladding to provide weather protection for the goods being transhiped, but this cladding terminated about eight foot above ground level at the shed sides and about twelve foot at each end, with additional cut-outs over the two rail sidings to reflect the loading gauge. On the passenger station side were windows and at the top of the two bays glass panelling was provided along the length of the roof to give natural lighting.
