Background

History

The station opened to passenger traffic on 9 June 1862 and closed on 17 September 1956. The station building and single platform were on the south side of the track; a signal box on the north side controlled the level crossing gates on the road to Cliburn. There was also a goods siding behind the station, which was used to host a camping coach from 1937 to 1939 and was possibly visited by a coach in 1933 and 1934. }}

Description

After closure, the station house became a private residence. The signal box also survives and has been restored as a holiday cottage.
