The railway station at Billingborough was built in 1872 to serve the villages of Billingborough, Horbling and Threekingham on the Bourne and Sleaford railway run by the Great Northern Railway Company. It closed to passengers in 1930 although the section from Bourne to Billingborough remained open for goods until 1964 and the station buildings became the headquarters of a local haulage company.
