Opened in 1845 by the Maryport & Carlisle Railway on what is today the line from Barrow-in-Furness to Carlisle, this station closed to passengers in 1960 and completely in 1964. View south west towards Dearham Bridge, Maryport and Barrow. The Maryport-bound platform was to the left of the line on this side of the bridge. The Carlisle-bound platform and main building were on the other side of the bridge, behind the camera position. The steps down to platform level can still be seen on the left.
