Opened by the Golden Valley Railway in 1881, the station closed and reopened three times in the next twenty years. It closed for the last time in 1941. Just south before the station, via a level crossing, was the railway access point for the MoD's Elm Bridge Munitions Depot. In 1901, traces of the Roman road which passed from Wroxeter to Abergavenny were found at the station.
