Celebrations have been held at Hassocks railway station after it won two national awards - and saw the return of an old signal box clock.

The station won second place in the Most Improved Station Building category of the Association of Community Rail Partnership awards, and was a finalist in the Station Excellence category of the national Rail Business awards.

The Hassocks signal box clock, bought for 25 shillings by the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway in 1899, was presented to the station by Hassocks Amenity Association.
