Opened in 1884 by the Cheshire Lines Committee as the terminus of its Southport & Cheshire Lines Extension Railway, this station closed in 1952. View north at the frontage. After some years as a bus station, the train shed behind was demolished and the site had become a supermarket when this image was taken. Sometime later, the metal canopies were removed -see Image for a 2022 image from the same camera position.
