The station was built by the Great Western Railway. Local residents had campaigned for a station to serve Great Rollright since 1875. When Britain's railways were nationalised in 1948 the B&CDR became part of the Western Region of British Railways. In 1951 British Railways withdrew passenger services from the line through Rollright Halt. In 1962 BR closed the railway to freight traffic and some time thereafter the line was dismantled.
