The station also contains a timber footbridge dating from 1914 and a timber, skillion roofed signal box dating from 1915. The station lamp room and a Gregory 5 ton jib crane are also included in the heritage listing.^[1]

The group is significant as it forms an intact small mainline station complex in good condition with an unusual adaptation of the building and platform to achieve duplication. It represents in unaltered form a station complex c. 1914 with track and yard arrangements still in position. The buildings and site form an integral part of the town of Newbridge, without which the town would not have survived.^[1]
