History
Opened by the Blyth and Tyne (Wansbeck) Railway, which was taken over by the North British Railway, it became part of the London and North Eastern Railway during the Grouping of 1923. The station then passed to the Eastern Region of British Railways upon nationalisation in 1948 and was closed in 1952 by British Railways.
The site today
The station house is now in private hands and has been extended, and the platform still exists.

gollark: I've heard about more general ways to achieve similar sorts of thing, like sticking HBM stuff onto GPUs and some computing-in-memory thing.
gollark: And brains are annoying to do things with since they're not understood very well and can't be copied/run in simulation very easily.
gollark: Running neural nets in analog hardware would also be kind of disadvantageous, since you couldn't then copy them very easily or run them on new stuff.
gollark: I'm sure there are lots of widely used ones which are.
