Opened in 1853 by the York Newcastle & Berwick Railway, later part of the North Eastern Railway, on the line from Durham to Sunderland, this station closed to passengers in 1964 and completely in 1965.
View south west towards Cox Green and Durham from the site of the level crossing. The main building was to the right, a signal box stood far left. Behind the camera position is the terminus of the Tyne & Wear Metro, now called South Hylton. See NZ3556 : South Hylton Metro station, Tyne & Wear.
