Type and Period

Description

The railway was built in 1842 by the Eastern Counties Railway following protracted arguments with Lord Petre. The railway station is in the Tudor Revival Style, and of red brick construction with diaper patterns in black brick, with chamfered stone surrounds to the main windows. The style was dictated by Lord Petre in order to echo that of Ingatestone Hall. There used to be extensive stock-pounds at the railway station for the storage of cattle prior to transportation, these are no longer extant. <1> See also <2>
