The most striking feature of Freshfield station is the old building next to the line. The side of the building which faces the road which crosses the line:

The rear of this building is less interesting:

The front of the building is best seen from the footbridge which crosses the line here:

A modern building now provides services to passengers on platform 1, for trains towards Liverpool:

However the modern building was being refurbished when we visited so a blue portakabin provided a temporary booking office in the place of some disabled parking:

With the temporary booking office and car park visible in the background, this is the collection of random shelters on platform 1:

The level crossing just south of the station platforms:

But like many stations on Merseyrail there is also a footbridge linking the two platforms:

Looking north from the footbridge along the platforms:

Looking south along the line:

Platform 2 at Freshfield has both a new shelter and a disused old building:

The old building is boarded up and covered in greenery:

Looking along the old building back towards the footbridge and level crossing:

Looking north along the line from the end of platform 2:

Looking south along the platforms from the same point:

Freshfield station is "for" the National Trust Red Squirrel Reserve and Beach:
