West Leake Road becomes Station Road just before the railway bridge where Birch Lea leads off to the left. The entrance to the station, which closed in 1969, was under the bridge but is now bricked off. The railway above survived, and is still in situ, to give access for freight trains to the British Gypsum works at Hotchley Hill. It will become part of a heritage line running south from Ruddington and connecting with the Great Central Railway at Loughborough.
