History

The station opened on 16 November 1863 by the Berwickshire Railway. The station was situated immediately east of a new road which now bypasses the building and the road overbridge which also survives. The station closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 13 August 1948. The station building survives and is a private residence. The platform has been landscaped as a garden.[2]
