History
The station opened on 20 November 1922 by the Great Eastern Railway. It was situated on the west side of Ditton Lane. The station had oil lamps but in summer these were stored away because no trains ran when it went dark and they were later replaced with Tilley lamps. The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 18 June 1962.[1]

gollark: means "you can pick a sufficiently large value of x such that it will get as close as you want to 0".
gollark: Well, if it didn't, it wouldn't be there.
