History

The station opened on 2 August 1848 by the Scottish Midland Junction Railway. To the north was a siding, which was known as Innernytie siding, and to the west of this was a signal box. The station disappeared from Bradshaw in October 1849 but reappeared in February 1850. It closed fully in July 1868. [1]
