Terminus of the first line connecting with Douglas, located alongside the harbour in the western city, this station was initially supplied with a timber structure similar to that provided at Douglas Station but smaller, being placed at right angles to the track; an island platform with run-round loop was also provided and a timber goods shed.  By the turn of the century both of these had been demolished and replaced with more substantial stone structures which remain today in much altered form.  A sandstone locomotive shed and slate water tower stood at the end of the yard, the latter of which is still in place with its unusual slate tank; the locomotive shed also had an annex to the front and a crew mess room was also provided.  A cattle dock, weighing scale and loading dock were provided in a goods yard and at one time a spur connected the station to the harbour.

The platform was heightened so that that top running board of the carriages accessed it, similar to those seen at stations along the south line today.  The island platform was furnished with lamp standards and a run-round loop plus spur on the harbour side, being the arrival platform, the tracks on the landward side being designated for departures, along with a further lines serving the goods shed with its platform height door apertures.  This structure became home to the replica Viking longboat Odin's Raven in 1979, the main station being a fisherman's' cooperative after closure before the whole site was redeveloped to become the award winning House Of Mannanan in 1997.  The locomotive shed was demolished after closure but the water tower survives as part of a diorama also including a short platform, semaphore signal and four-wheel carriage body C.1 by the Peel Heritage Trust.
