Dunchurch railway station

Dunchurch railway station was a railway station serving Dunchurch in the English county of Warwickshire on the Rugby to Leamington line.

This later became known as the Rugby and Leamington Railway and received royal assent on 13 August 1846.

The undertaking was sold to the London and North Western Railway on 17 November 1846 and the line opened on 1 March 1851.

When the line opened there were only two intermediate stations (at Birdingbury and Marton) despite Dunchurch's population of 6,061 at the time.

[2] Dunchurch had to wait more than 20 years before the LNWR opened the station at the point where the railway crossed beneath the road to Coventry (now the A45 trunk road) 1¾ miles west of the village.
