History
The station was opened by the Stafford and Uttoxeter Railway in 1867. The Stafford and Uttoxeter Railway was purchased for £100,000 by the Great Northern Railway in July 1881 and the line passed subsequently into London and North Eastern Railway ownership on Railway Grouping in 1923.Originally single line, a passing loop was added in 1887. Built in a cutting, the main station buildings were next to the road above, with the booking office on the main platform. Like most of the others on the line, the platforms were staggered, both accessible by cart tracks.
Two miles further north the single line entered Bromshall Tunnel before reaching its junction with North Staffordshire Railway line to.
The station was closed in 1939.
