Opened in 1888 by the North Eastern Railway, on the line from Hull Paragon to Withernsea, this station closed in 1909. It reopened briefly as Hedon Speedway Halt in 1948 but closed again in 1949. View east towards Hedon and Withernsea. Both platforms were extant when this image was taken, hidden by the undergrowth.
