The superb 1956 British Railways built Freeman's signal box. It is of a familiar LNER design of brick construction with a flat concrete roof. It is the final box before trains enter the section of the branch to North Blyth with the line terminating at the Alcan alumina loading facility. Notice the yellow structure constructed on the former up line with the notice stating 'End of of Staff Section' on it. This allows the signalman to exchange a token with the driver more easily.
