The station site has since been built on with the exception of the bridge and line as they remain but overgrown and the Wolverhampton bound line been lifted and the support for it removed leaving a big hole on the left of the bridge. Some rail is still present on the Walsall bound line and some supports of the former stairs to the Walsall bound platform.
