The name of the station is that of the adjacent industrial estate, which in turn is inspired by the 'Percy Lion' the symbol of the Duke of Northumberland who owns much of the land in this area.

The Aln Valley Railway is a heritage railway based in Alnwick, Northumberland. Construction of the railway is an ongoing project with the eventual intention being to reopen the old Alnwick Branch Line from the newly completed Alnwick Lionheart terminus station in Alnwick (not built on the site of the original station due to it being unavailable and there being new buildings on some of the trackbed into the town centre) to Alnmouth station.
