Opened 1 April 1889 by the
London and North Western Railway, The station had two
platforms made of wood upon which were only very basic
waiting facilities and a
signal box. As with many other lightly patronised stops of the time, it was closed during
World War I for
austerity purposes between 1 January 1917 and 5 May 1919. The station struggled on until it closed on 5 January 1931. The line continued to run through the station until 1983, when the railway route was realigned, and the station site covered by the
A55. ==References==
