Millisle or Millisle for Garlieston[1] was a railway station that was near the junction for Garlieston on the Wigtownshire Railway branch line, from Newton Stewart, of the Portpatrick and Wigtownshire Joint Railway. It served a rural area in Wigtownshire. The line was closed to passenger services in 1950, and to goods in 1964.

History

The station replaced Garliestontown that lay to the north and opened as a terminus in 1876.[2] A shed was located here which was a combined goods shed and engine shed. A passing loop was present and a single platform at the station.[3]

Regular passenger services ceased on the Garlieston branch on 1 March 1903; Millisle was then renamed as Millisle for Garlieston.[2]

The station master's house survives as a private dwelling named Kilfillan Croft.[4]
