It is situated on what is now the Leeds–Morecambe line between the current Wennington and Carnforth stations.

History

Opened by the Furness and Midland Joint Railway in 1867, then run by the Midland Railway, it became part of the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923. The station then passed on to the London Midland Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. It was then closed by the British Transport Commission on 12 September 1960[1] when the local stopping service between Wennington & Carnforth was withdrawn.

Preservation

The station building was converted to a private dwelling after closure. It was once owned by comedian and television personality Jim Bowen[2] and has featured on the TV programme Through the Keyhole.
