HistoryThe railway station was opened on 31 May 1847[1][2] but in a remote location, and was little used. The western platform was accessed by a pathway down from Ringley Road, the east platform was accessed by a subway at the southern end of the station.[3] In 1879 the railway station was the location of the apparent suicide of a collier who had been in the custody of a police officer for assaulting his wife. The collier had jumped in front of an approaching train and was crushed to death, almost dragging the officer along with him. A later inquest in Salford returned an open verdict.[4] The railway station closed on 5 January 1953.[2] The railway station now forms part of the route of the Irwell Sculpture Trail.
