The station opened on 21 October 1895 by the North Eastern Railway. It was situated on the north side of Front Street on the A689. It had a signal box, a goods warehouse and a single road engine shed, situated to the southeast. The station closed to passengers on 29 June 1953 and closed to goods on 2 January 1961.
