Cornhill railway station was an intermediate stop situated[1] on the Great North of Scotland Railway (GNoSR) line from Cairnie Junction to Tillynaught.
There was only a single platform at Cornhill that served the nearby village that lies in Fordyce Parish, of what was once Banffshire, 8+1⁄2 miles (13.7 km) from Banff itself.
Cornhill was opened in 1859 by the Banff, Portsoy and Strathisla Railway,[1] and in 1867 was absorbed by the GNoSR who took over the line and operated it until grouping in 1923.
Passing into British Railways ownership in 1948, the line was, like the rest of the ex-GNoSR lines along the Moray coast, considered for closure as part of the Beeching report and closure notices were issued in 1963.
The surviving station building was constructed circa 1886 and was built of wood.
