Fan Window

Buxton Railway Station, Station Road, Buxton, SK17 6AQ

The Grade II listed fan window built in 1863 at Buxton Station is a well known landmark in the town, greeting rail passengers to and from their destination along the Buxton to Manchester line. Originally part of a twin railway terminus, it was restored and repaired in 2019 (following vandalism which broke glass panels) organised by the Friends of Buxton Station; the fan window is just one of many improvement projects which have slowly transformed Buxton Station since the volunteer group rejuvenated in 2015.

TIP: Look across the road – you can still see the base of the other fan window (there were two) from what was Midland Station.
