The station is located on Champion Park (just off the road called Denmark Hill), and was built in 1866. Its design is in the Italianate style, with an extremely decorative frontage. A fire in 1980 meant restoration: this included the addition of a public house, initially called the Phoenix and Firkin to commemorate the fire, then called O'Neills and now known simply as the Phoenix. A Civic Trust award was given to the building in 1986. The platforms are below road level and there ia a short tunnels at one end of the platforms, and road bridge (underneath Denmark Hill the road) at the other end.
