Leasowe station sits on the West Kirby branch of Merseyrail's Wirral Line, and has two platforms with a bridge and level crossing joining them at its eastern end. The station building is to the south of the line adjacent to the westbound platform 1:

With the level crossing just visible on the right, we head up the slight ramp towards the platform and see a departures board covered with a grille:
