View westward, towards Darlington - on the pioneer Stockton & Darlington Railway of 1825. This station was built as a Halt in 1940 to serve the large Ministry of Aircraft Production factory engaged in metal recovery from crashed aircraft. After the War it was taken over by the Royal Navy until October 1971 when it was opened for public services between Darlington, Eaglescliffe and Tees-side.
