This was originally Oxford Street Station, the first railway station in Tynemouth, opened in 1847. In 1882 it was superseded as a passenger station by a new one on Station Terrace, the present Tynemouth Station. The old one continued as a goods station until 1959. In recent years it was incorporated into a sheltered housing project called Mariners Point.
