There is plenty of parking at the station but it is not free. Its okay to leave your car there.
There is a bus stop outside the Raven Pub, which is just after the sharp right turning. The number 200 bus stops there.
There are toilets in Tesco and surprisingly lots of food so you can get a sandwich and a drink. There is also a cosy waiting room.
The Raven Pub is a hotel, it is just after the sharp right turn.
The station has 2 platforms that sit on the slow lines, in between is the fast lines. There is substantial vegetation growing in the ballast areas which will make clean shots of trains in the opposing direction difficult.
The footbridge will provide a higher vantage point over the lines.
