Site Description

Approaching the station, the line passed through a former quarry, evidence of this remaining on the Down side. There are two platforms at this suburban station, both accessed by ramps at the Balbriggan end of the station. The ticket office is on the Up side at the same end. The signal interlocking is beyond this on the Down side, after which there is a facing and a trailing crossover.
