Site Description

Only the station house remains here, since restored as a private residence. The station was terminal in nature with both lines from Ballingrane Junction and Tralee approaching from the north, under a twin arch bridge, which has since been demolished. There was a single platform with two faces, on which was the station building and a carriage shed over the running line adjacent to this. The goods store was on the Down side opposite the station building. There were additional sidings on the Up side beyond the line serving the platform.
