Opened in 1910 by the Great Western Railway as the terminus of its line from Henbury, this short lived station closed to passengers in 1915, being then used for workers only until 1919. It was only a short distance from the current Avonmouth station. View north west from the former LC approximately along the site of the short, single wooden platform, with the track serving it to its left.
