Opened in 1856 as a branch from the Monkland Railways' line at Blackstone, this station closed to passengers as early as 1930, and closed completely in 1963. View south east across the former level crossing, with the platforms being somewhere near the course of the minor road opposite. The main building was somewhere near where the tree in the centre of the image is. As can be seen, no trace appears to remain.
