[3] Higham station was unique on the line for having an exceptionally large goods shed which dealt with a heavy agricultural traffic in the early twentieth century until goods traffic was withdrawn in 1964.

[5] Following the station's closure, the station building and goods shed were sold off and the track layout rationalised, resulting in the removal of the south platform and the closure of the signal box in 1970.

[6] Today, the station and a new commercial building siting behind the plot of the old goods shed is in private ownership and used for commercial purposes.

The goods shed caught fire in 2016 and unfortunately had to be pulled down prior which it served as a lighting showroom..[7] The station building is the sole remaining example dating from the extension of the Newmarket line - identical buildings at Saxham and Risby railway station and Kennett railway station have since been demolished.

[8] On 10 September 2016, the goods shed caught fire, closing the line, and was demolished the next day due to the risk of the building collapsing on to the line.
