Improved pedestrian flows are the result of a new concrete bridge. The new station is a mixture of the Southern's concrete and brick designs. It has stood the test of time fairly well, still being in use today.

Are these signs of the station being rebuilt? There are no adverts on the hoardings and the canopy roofs seem to be incomplete. The platform edge of the bay seems to be very clean and the yard in front of the station has string of long wheelbase, open 4 wheeled wagons that could well have brought in the components for reconstruction... for example concrete platform materials from the Exmouth Junction Concrete works in Exeter.
