However, staff are present on the platforms during the hours trains are running. This station has two ticket and two Oyster card machines; one for each platform as well as two waiting rooms. This station has a shelter on each platform. The platforms are only reachable by stairs.

There are no current plans to introduce lift access. The station was briefly equipped with APTIS ticketing equipment in 1988–89.
