 The small station building was put on the east side of the track and the platform on the west; access between the two was across a pedestrian level crossing.A loop line served a goods shed opposite the platform to the north of the station building.The railway was operated from the start by the Bristol and Exeter Railway which became a part of the Great Western Railway (GWR) in 1876, but the West Somerset Railway remained an independent company until 1922 when it too was absorbed by the GWR.
