The stop sits in the shadow of Livery Street, which, at this point, is on a blue-brick lined embankment, preventing direct access to the square. Livery Street then crosses the tram and railway lines, at a very acute angle, at the Wolverhampton end of the stop.
The Birmingham to Worcester railway line runs alongside, but the stop is served only by trams, as there are no railway platforms.
