The station area is now an industrial estate. West of the station, the Raikes Lane overbridge has since been bricked up.[2] and the cutting west of the station has been filled in. Going east, the bridge over the A62 Gelderd Road was removed [3]

The line from Birstall to Gildersome came very close now to the M62 Junction 27 Trading Estate, including Ikea, Showcase Cinemas, et al.
