Historic Carcoar Railway Station

The Historic Carcoar Railway Station, established in 1888, is a heritage-listed site in Carcoar, New South Wales. The station building and residence retain their built form with only minor alterations and removal of fabric. The position of the station on the side of the hill overlooking the town gives it a high prominence and visual importance in this historic town and landscape of the area. It also demonstrates the technical achievement of railway construction in difficult locations with the use of cuttings and fill to locate station buildings. It also illustrates how the railway often dominated the landscape into which it was introduced. They form a complete Victorian station complex in excellent condition that enhances the local setting and provides a good example of a roadside station with residence located nearby. The connection with the town is an important part of the group's significance.
