Opened in 1858 by the London & North Western Railway, this station has been rebuilt several times and has partially shifted exact location over the years. It was known as Shaw Street between 1949 and 1984. View north towards Garswood and Wigan, a few years after electrification of the line. For an earlier view, see Image
