History and description
The station had two platforms. There was a substantial stone building on one, with the other supplied with only a shelter. Initially a small and insignificant halt (though the suffix 'halt' did not begin appearing until the 1900s), Church Road grew in importance and a telephone kiosk was installed in 1891,[1] together with the larger waiting room. For many years, the station's flowerbeds had its name spelt out in bedding plants.[2]
The station's patronage slumped in the post-war years. It closed to both passengers and freight in 1957, having been unstaffed for a number of years.[3] The larger station building is now a private residence, though the second platform was gone by 1974.[4]
