Facilities When Open
The station itself had three platforms - up, towards York, the West platform; down toward Beverly, the East platform, and a bay off the West side. The Station House building is on the down (East) side, consisting of two waiting rooms, and the Stationmaster's office. Also on the site was a two-road goods shed, which backed onto the down platform. The large yard between the goods shed and the station building served as a holding area for goods received or pending dispatch. Stamford Bridge had a relatively short throat by NER standards, between the end of the platforms and the Viaduct is only about 600yards.
