A passenger platform 46 metre long fronted the main line, a 170 metre long loop siding and goods platform opposite. A gate house was also provided for the adjacent level crossing, but was dismantled in 1909 due to the 'road' being a mere dirt track with little traffic.

Tom Fletcher opened a sawmill at the station in 1903 and operated for about 15 years.
