Site Description

Approaching the station, a siding diverges on the Up side. This runs into the former goods area. The former goods store remains here. The station building is on the Up platform, which is served by the through line. A loop on the Down side serves the Down platform. The disused signal cabin, of typical DW&WR design, is on this. On the platform side of this, there is a plate bearing the inscription: "Thompson Bros Engineers & Contractors Wexford 1891". There is a shelter on the Up platform and a water tower at the Dublin end of same.
