Opened in 1846 by the York & Newcastle Railway, later part of the North Eastern Railway, on the line from Eryholme Junction to Richmond (Yorkshire), this station closed to passengers in 1969 and completely in 1970. View west across the former level crossing towards Richmond. We would have been stood on the railway track which crossed the road, to the left of the street lamp and through the low wall. The station site is now mostly covered by the modern building. For more information, see http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/c/catterick_bridge/index.shtml
