Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox station Asfordby railway station was a station serving the villages of Asfordby and Kirby Bellars in Leicestershire. The station was situated at a level crossing on the road between the two villages. It opened in 1846 and was originally named Kirby, but had been renamed Asfordby by 1863.[1] It closed to passengers in 1951 but remained in use for goods until 1964.[2]

History

It was opened by the Midland Railway on the Syston and Peterborough Railway. The station building were designed by the architects William Parsons and Sancton Wood.[3] The contractors Norman and Grimson undertook to build it for £744 8s 6d. and it was remarkably similar to the station at Rearsby.

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 Railways Board.
