It served the village of Barnby Dun, near Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England.

The original station, which was situated across the canal from the village, was opened with the line on 1 July 1856 and closed on 1 October 1866 when the new station, at the opposite side of the village was opened.

This platform was long, with a ramp to a barrow crossing to the 'down' side at its centre.

The station was again rebuilt to accommodate four tracks in the Doncaster to Thorne widening of 1913 when the Doncaster-bound (down) platform was moved back.
