As above, what is the smallest station - either by total annual passengers/no. daily services/physical area of the station - that still has a ticket office which is open on at least a semi-regular basis?

Obviously a lot of stations have former station buildings that no longer serve as ticket offices, but what is the smallest station which still has a working ticket office?

(The obvious follow up question is the smallest station with just a TVM/PERTIS Machine, but I feel those answers are probably less interesting.)

Although it has a decent amount of passengers and services, Lymington Town may be one of the physically smallest stations to have a ticket office. And there may not be a smaller one with a ticket office open 7 days a week. (I am almost certainly wrong, after a little bit more looking!)

Furze Platt has a ticket office which is open in the mornings Monday to Friday. It’s a small one platform station.

Stourbridge Town has the tiniest trains (the Parry People Movers) but the modest building and office probably not the tiniest.

Back in BR Regional Railways days, Keynsham had a tiny booth with a morning part-time ‘railman’ with a portable ticket machine.

I think Glazebrook, Flixton and Chassen Road have someone in a booth in the morning peak or they did a few years ago.
