Built circa 1845 by Francis Thompson, railway architect of the early C19, whose
work (mainly in the north midlands) includes, notably, Chester station. In
1845 "The Builder" attributed both Great Chesterford and Audley End stations
to Francis Thompson. A rectangular yellow gault brick building with a parapet,
stucco band and elemental cornice. Two storeys. Five window range on both
the approach and platform fronts, double-hung sashes with glazing bars, in
plain stucco architraves with simple cornices. The ground storey windows have
been altered with horizontal glazing bars. The north and south ends each has
one window range. The platform has a C20 canopy without a fascia, on original
"gallows" angle brackets with moulded pendants.
