History
The eastern section of the Sheffield, Ashton-under-Lyne and Manchester Railway, between Sheffield (Bridgehouses) and Шаблон:Stnlnk, was opened on 14 July 1845, but originally there was no station between Шаблон:Stnlnk and Dunford Bridge; it had been intended to provide one at Hazlehead Bridge, with bus connections to Huddersfield, but the approach roads were not suitable, and the buses ran to Dunford Bridge instead.Шаблон:Sfn
Following petitions from local inhabitants, a station named Hazlehead was opened on 1 May 1846Шаблон:Sfn (as was a station at Dog Lane, near Dukinfield), and the Huddersfield omnibus served Hazlehead station from August.Шаблон:Sfn
