Opened in 1902 on the London & South Western Railway's branch line from Grateley to Bulford Camp, this station closed to passengers in 1952. View south east along the course of the railway towards the station and Grateley. The platform ends would have been just sticking out of the end of the trees. The land has reverted to nature, although behind the photographer's position, a farm track follows the line of the railway.
