Opened in 1908 as Landywood Halt by the London & North Western Railway on the line from Walsall to Rugeley, this short-lived station closed in 1916. It was rebuilt and reopened in 1989 by British Rail. View north towards Wyrley & Cheslyn Hay and Rugeley, some 7 years before the railway line was electrified.
