The Green Line runs on mostly segregated track, making use of the disused railway alignment from Bray to Harcourt Street. The Cowper stop is located between the backs of residential properties. The stop has the signs, displays, shelters, and ticket machines common to all Luas stops. It has two entrances: one from Merton Road and one from Tudor Road. Both entrances consist of simple tree-lined pathways and lead to the southern end of the platforms. The Merton Road entrance is signposted with a solar-powered totem.

It takes its name from the nearby Cowper Road, which is named for William Cowper-Temple, 1st Baron Mount Temple (1811–1888), who formerly owned land in the area. He pronounced his name "cooper", but the stop is pronounced "cow-per."^[2][3]

Trams stop at the stop coming from either end every 2-10 minutes.
