Lydd Town Station had two platforms with a passing loop and an extensive goods yard. The main station building was on the up side with a standard SER waiting shelter on the down side. The goods yard included a goods shed, loading dock, cattle pens, coal pens, turntable, water tower and numerous other small buildings. There were four sidings one of which linked in to an extensive private railway system, the Lydd Military Railway; within Lydd army camp and ranges which at its peak incorporated over five miles of track. The Lydd Military Railway was out of use by the mid 1920's and the track was lifted in 1926/27. Military traffic at the station remained very heavy, even into the late 1950's. The stationmaster lived in a large detached house on the south side of the station.
Immediately before entering the station the line passed under the only overbridge on the line and beside it a level crossing which was added in the early 1960's to cater for heavy construction traffic bound for Dungeness Power Station.
The station closed to passenger traffic on 6.3.1967 but general freight traffic continued to be handled until 4.10.1971. The station was used as a vehicle repair workshop at least until the mid 1980's but the whole site is now derelict. The down platform was demolished in the early 1970's and the passing loop was removed some time after 1983.
The line is still used to service Dungeness Power Station.
