The original station building was demolished in 1959 and replaced with new buildings designed by H. H. Powell, of the British Railways Eastern Region Architects' Department[3] with T. Rainier as the Project Architect.The station was Grade II listed in March 2009;[4] "one of a very small number of post-war railway stations of clear architectural distinction".[5]
