Background

History

The station opened on 11 July 1835 by the Clarence Railway at the junction between its two eastern branches to and North Shore Staithes. The station was poorly located for the village of Norton and so it closed to both passengers and goods traffic in July 1870 by the North Eastern Railway to be replaced by Norton-on-Tees station, a short distance to the east along the Port Clarence branch.
