It had one island platform. Being a mile and a half from Finedon village it was little used in later years and closed to passengers in 1940. It remained open for goods until 1964 and had quite large sidings for the local stone, with a tramway to the Excelsior and the Finedon Hill mines.[1] {{Historical Rail Start}}{{rail line|next={{stnlnk|Wellingborough}}|previous={{stnlnk|Isham and Burton Latimer}}|route=Midland RailwayMidland Main Line|col={{MR colour}}}}{{end}} References1. ^Radford, B., (1983) Midland Line Memories: a Pictorial History of the Midland Railway Main Line Between London (St Pancras) & Derby London: Bloomsbury Books {{coord|52.3475|-0.6906|type:railwaystation_region:GB|display=title}}{{Closed_stations_Northamptonshire}}{{EastMidlands-railstation-stub}} 6 : Disused railway stations in Northamptonshire|Former Midland Railway stations|Railway stations opened in 1857|Railway stations closed in 1940|Charles Henry Driver railway stations|1857 establishments in England |
