Opened in 1839 by the Midland Counties Railway, soon to become the Midland Railway, on the line from Derby to Nottingham and Leicester, this station was closed in 1871 when it was replaced by a more spacious one slightly closer to Derby. View west at the surviving building, now a private residence. The platforms have long since been removed.
