The former Forge Valley station, which is now standing empty after the site was vacated recently by North Yorkshire C.C. Highways, in December 2021. The station building and platform are still generally intact, although a derelict portable building is on the platform alongside the building. The goods shed is in good condition due to it being used for storage of items over the years. There is a long entrance road up to the station, with an old concrete gatepost on the right by the entrance. What the future holds for the station only time will tell. View is looking west from the end of the platform by the wall that has replaced the crossing gate.
