It served a rural area in Wigtownshire. The line was closed to passenger services in 1950, and to goods in 1964. HistoryThe 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] Micro-historyA Millisle Road Halt railway station existed on the Belfast and County Down Railway which ran from Belfast to Donaghadee in Northern Ireland.
