Opened in 1864 by the Kirkcudbright Railway, soon to become part of the Glasgow & South Western Railway, on the line from Castle Douglas to Kirkcudbright, this station closed in 1965. From 1865 to 1871 it was known as "Gatehouse". View east from the road, the old station building can be seen centre-left of the image. The rest of the site was business premises when this image was taken.
