It’s neither.

Clue 1: this station has 2 platforms.
Clue 2: two TOCs use this station.
Clue 3: this station has automated level crossing barriers at one end.

Clue 4: Pre-lockdown, the station was a start/end point for two direct services to London each weekday, although you would usually connect for London services at the 2nd next southbound station.

edit: My error on clue 4, apologies, it’s not the next southbound station but the 2nd. Now amended.
