History
The station was opened on 1 May 1905 by the Great Western Railway.[1] It was situated on the north side of the B5057. Nearby was Wynn Hall Colliery and a signal box which opened with the station. When the colliery closed in 1909, passenger traffic was severely reduced. This was exacerbated with the success of the new bus service, thus the station closed on 22 March 1915.[2]
