Histon Signal Box.  1st September 1980. This was located at the end of the Down Platform. It was of McKenzie and Holland design as characterised by the finials on the roof and the vertical window panes. The box originally contained 24 levers , but a new 30 lever frame was added in 1903. In the early thirties a 90 wagon Up goods loop was provided at Histon which needed 4 more levers. This required the box to be extended which can be seen to the extreme right. The box closed completely on 24th April 1972 and demolished in September 1980 after it was set alight by vandals.
