Opened in 1898 by the Port Talbot Railway & Docks Company, later part of the Great Western Railway, on the line from here to Pontyrhyl, this station closed to passengers in 1933 and the site was redeveloped. View south across the forecourt towards the buffers. The single platform was roughly where the line of houses now is.
