History
The station opened 5 September 1887 by the North Eastern Railway. It was situated immediately south of the B6346. The goods yard was situated east from the A697. The station closed to passengers on 22 September 1930 and to goods traffic on 1 December 1954, which was later than the other stations to the south. The station building and station master's house are now private residences.[1]
