The station was opened on 1 December 1859 by the North British Railway. It was on the west side of the A6079 at the junction with an unclassified road and immediately southwest of Chollerton village.

The station closed to passengers on 15 October 1956 [1] and closed completely on 1 September 1958. [2]
