A timber faced platform 200 feet long fronted the main line on the south side, with a portable station building provided, and a loop siding opposite. By 1900 the office was removed, and in 1928 the role for main line and loop road was swapped to allow goods to be loaded from the passenger platform. The loop siding was removed in 1945 when the station was closed.
