PRESTON

SD53SE GAMULL LANE 941-1/2/140 (West side) Former railway station on former Longridge Railway

II

Small railway station building including station master's house and booking office, now private dwelling. Mid C19, altered. Coursed squared sandstone with ashlar dressings, composition tile roof. Rectangular single-depth plan comprising house to left and ticket office to right. Two storeys, a 5-window range (including small stairwindow); with prominent moulded gutter cornice. The former station master's house has symetrically-arranged openings: a tall central doorway with pilaster jambs, cornice, and overlight, a low rectangular stairwindow above this, and two 12-pane sashes on each floor, those at ground floor with cornices like that of the doorway, and all with plain surrounds. The ticket office to the right has a matching doorway, a matching window to the right, a small 4-pane sashed window to the right of this (ticket window), an 8-pane sash over the door and a 12-pane sash to the right of this. Gable chimneys with prominent cornices. INTERIOR altered. Interesting example of small country station building.
