Station Today
The station has three tracks running through it which serve a single-sided platform and two double-sided island platforms. The platforms are numbered 1 to 5 with numbers 1 and 2 serving each side of one track and 3 and 4 serving each side of another. Platform 1 northbound is not presently in public use. Two new lifts were installed during 2008, one on platform 2/3 and one on platform 4/5 to provide step-free access to the platforms. Ticket barriers are in operation.
The maintenance of the station now falls under Tube Lines as part of the Public-Private Partnership.

““I’m very brave generally,” he went on in a low voice: “only today I happen to have a headache.””
