Opened in 1845 by the York & North Midland Railway, later part of the North Eastern Railway, on its line from Scarborough to York. This station closed to passengers in 1930. View south west towards Strensall Halt and York. The York-bound platform was to the left. The Scarborough-bound platform was behind the camera position, as was a small coal yard and sidings for the Brecks Lane brick and tile works.
