Holme Hale station had a single platform on the north side of the running line. The platform lay on a roughly east-west axis, the line from Thetford having taken a long curved route to the west from its north-south path at Watton. There was a level crossing, probably operated manually rather than from the signal box, over Brown’s Lane at the western (Swaffham) end of the platform. A single-line goods shed was opposite the platform with its entrance facing east.
It was on the Great Eastern Railway line between Swaffham and Thetford, and closed in 1964.
