The station has 2 platforms. Platform 1 is used for Southbound trains and platform 2 is used for Northbound trains. The platforms are long enough to fit 6-carriage trains but Enterprise trains do not fully fit so the locomotive is usually past the platform end. The station has a building with a ticket office as well as ticket machines, vending machines and toilets. There are indoor and outdoor waiting areas, and a footbridge which is not disabled access friendly so crossing the platforms is only possible via the level crossing for those with a wheelchair. There are also seating areas outside and car parking spaces on both sides of the station.
