Served by the line from Newport to Sandown, the station was incorporated by the Isle of Wight (Newport Junction) Railway in 1868[2] opened in 1875. Absorbed by the Isle of Wight Central Railway, it became part of the Southern Railway during the Grouping of 1923. Passing on to the Southern Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, it was then closed 81 years after opening by the British Transport Commission.[3]

During a Second World War blackout a train ran through Alverstone and a railwayman had to escort the passengers back to there from Newchurch.[4]
