Originally named Broughton, the station was renamed several times: on 1 July 1845 it became Broughton Astley, reverting to the original name on 1 October 1870, but became Broughton Astley permanently from 15 September 1879.[1]

In 1857 the Midland completed a new main line south to Шаблон:Rws and the Шаблон:Rws – Rugby section of the Midland Counties was relegated to a branch. British Railways closed the Leicester – Rugby line and its stations, including Broughton Astley which closed on 1 January 1962.[1][2]
