Built in 1891, it is one of only a few remaining L&YR signal boxes to survive in anything like original condition.[1]
In July 2013, it was one of 26 "highly distinctive" signal boxes listed by Ed Davey, minister for the Department for Culture, Media and Sport, in a joint initiative by English Heritage and Network Rail to preserve and provide a window into how railways were operated in the past.[2][3]
