Background

History

Along with other stations on the line between Fellgate and South Hylton, the station is fitted with vitreous enamel panels designed by artist, Morag Morrison.

The station was used by 380,620 passengers in 2017–18, making it the fourth-most-used station on the Wearside extension, after Pelaw (1,092,716), Sunderland (772,975) and Park Lane (392,327).
