Despite being built to a North Eastern design, Grosmont Crossing signal box dates from 1995. It was built using reclaimed bricks from Whitby and other parts from Eskdale Mines box. The frame came from Hordon box that was on the Durham coast line near to Peterlee. The box, that sits commanding good views of the station and crossing is always kept busy controlling the running lines, the level crossing and permitting the trains to leave and join the NYMR from Network Rail metals.
