Believed to have been opened in 1851 by the North Eastern Railway on the line from Market Weighton to Selby, this station closed to passengers in 1954 and completely in 1964. View east towards Menthorpe Gate and Market Weighton. This was also the junction for the Derwent Valley Light Railway from 1913 to 1926 (although goods traffic continued for longer).
