Opened in 1905 as Dyke Junction Halt to serve as an interchange for the Dyke branch railway. It was renamed Aldrington Halt in 1932 and eventually became just Aldrington. Staffing went in 1990 and a couple of small shelters are the only facilities available here though it is served by 4 trains in each direction per hour during the day and can be busy in peak periods. The buildings from St Joseph's trading estate are on the left.
