Opened in 1902 on the Highland Railway's branch line from The Mound to Dornoch, this station closed in 1960. View north from what was the north end of the platform across the level crossing to the former Station Master's house. Behind the camera position is a new road and housing so the only trace of the railway is the former trackbed to the left of the building.
