Opened in 1850 by the Huddersfield & Sheffield Junction Railway which became part of the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway's empire, this was the end of a short branch line from Brockholes. The station closed to passengers in 1959 and completely in 1964. View south towards the buffers. The platform was on the far left and ran just past the front of the building.
