Background

The station opened on 1 April 1857 by the North Eastern Railway. It was situated on the south side of Station Road. The goods yard consisted of a single siding behind the up platform. The goods facilities at the station were basic, handling general goods and parcels but not livestock. On the north side of the level crossing were Hunwick Colliery, Tillery and Brickworks. The goods facilities were withdrawn from the station on 15 September 1958 and it was closed to passengers on 4 May 1964.
