| Notes | STATION ROAD 1. 5334 Hexham Railway Station NY 9464 10/401 II GV 2. Railway Station, comprising Station House, offices, rooms and canopy over south platform, footbridge, north platform wall and canopy over. Centre section of south range 1835 by John Blackmore for the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway Co., extended in the 1840s and 1850s by Peter Tate. Further extensions in the 1860s and 1870s by Thomas Prosser for the North Eastern Railway, and by William Bell in 1881 and 1901 for the same Company. Local sandstone ashlar, later parts with alternating-block quoins and dressings. Purple slate roofs, stone stacks, terra- cotta pots; some glazed roof areas. Cast iron platform canopies, wrought iron bridge. Earlier buildings in Tudor style, extensions in the later periods classical but incorporating some original features and blending well. Projecting central 2-storey house and flanking 1-storey ranges. House: raised from 1 storey in 1881 using the original gable details. 2 gabled bays to forecourt, the right lower. Sash windows with glazing bays in chamfered surrounds. Ground floor concealed by outbuilding projection. Big stacks on left gable peak and in valley, the latter with corniced hexagonal shafts. 2-bay right return has modern door in plain surround in left bay and sash windows in gabled half dormer. Taller right bay has paired sashes below, single sash above and a coped square finial block to the gable. Openings in plain stone surrounds. 2-bay left return has blank right bay. On ground floor left a hip-roofed canted bay window with vertical sashes, an original 1835 feature re-sited from the right return in the 1850s. Similar square finial block to this gabled bay. To right of house a 4-bay booking hall with left pedestrian and vehicle entrances, both with panelled double doors. 2 display windows on right; flat roof. Further right a hip-roofed 3-bay goods office with 12-pane top-opening lights in quoined surrounds. 4-panel door with overlight in left return. To left of house 2 hip-roofed pavilions with short glazed links, have sash windows in eared and shouldered chamfered surrounds. Platform elevation shows 5-bay office and booking hall to left of entrance. Double door in third bay, single with sidelights to booking office, quoined windows. Flat-arched vehicle entrance to right. Booking office dates from 1850s, goods office from 1901. To right of entrance a kiosk (the former booking office) and a continuous 9-bay frontage in which the original Tudor features of chamfered openings with double-chamfered hoodmoulds have been retained or re-used. The projecting left bay, now a waiting room, has a double door and is part of the original fabric. Weathering of removed canopy visible above. Present canopy, 1870-71 by Thomas Prosser; cast'iron columns support open cast iron panels forming arch braces to tie beams with king and queen posts to roof with glazed centre. Similar but narrower canopy over north platform where only the back wall and a small wait- ing room remain from an earlier range of buildings. Linking the platforms at the east end a typical footbridge of the 1870s: stairs and deck supported on 2 big arches with ring braces in the spandrels. Latticed parapet rail with console curved stanchions. Interiors: Ladies' waiting room of 1860s has original fire- place with arched cast iron grate, chimneypiece of polished local crinoidal carboniferous limestone; and overmantel mirror. Dado rail and panelled window bay. Plainer stone fireplace, with square cast iron grate, in general waiting room. V.R. letterbox in waiting room wall. Booking hall has 2 ticket windows of gothic style with roll-moulded 2-centred arches and quoined jambs. Modern entrance canopy is not of special interest. , | Facts about Notes |
