Teversal Manor Station functioned between 1866-1963 when it finally ceased to function - for passengers at least - as a result of the Beeching British Railways rationalisation programme. The line linked with Pleasley. This (replica ?) platform on what is now a cycling and rambling trail is approximately 5 minutes walk from The Carnarvon Arms pub in Fackley - alongside the B6014 road - and it can be accessed ahead through the gate and footpath on the right. The bench commemorates the service of Louis Zelickman, the final Station Master, who worked here between 1946-64. When station closed, and following his retirement, he continued to live at the nearby Station Master's House until his death in 2008.
