In the 1930s a large new entrance and booking hall were added but much  of the earlier station still survives behind this building. The surrounding area around the  building has been  upgraded in recent years.

A Blue Plaque to commemorate Sir Nigel Gresley who was responsible for the building of iconic steam engines, the Flying Scotsman , the Mallard and many more at the Doncaster works, was installed at the station in 2025.
