This was a single platform halt laid in to serve the nearby Lethenty Mills which are still in use. The railway and platform are built over a small stream, with both the railway and platform appearing to cross the stream on bridges. The railway section of that bridge appears to have been removed, but the platform still crosses the stream. The platform is now in a section of trees but can be seen and accessed from the nearby road. A house is situated immediately north of the station called Station House, alongside the trackbed can be followed for a distance to the north as a farm track leading to fields.
Is "Station House" the former Stationmaster's House, or just a conveniently-named property?
