            This mock Tudor railway station was built in 1895 to replace the original station of 1862 that was destroyed by fire.

The designer was Berkeley Deane Wise - a civil engineer who was Chief Engineer to the Belfast and Northern Counties Railway for eighteen years.  Amongst other projects, he also designed the tubular and suspension bridges that formed part of the famous Gobbins cliff path.  It appears that he was not just 'wise' in name only.
