The station had one platform and was not publicly accessible, due to being located between works sites.
In 2007 the platform was in a poor condition, and a clause in the decision approving closure required that the platform could not be demolished until after 21 May 2008 in case of any operator wishing to reopen it.[2] The platform is still in place although the current operator East Midlands Railway has no plans to reopen the branch.
