[8][9] The villagers had asked the Great Western Railway to provide a siding, but this was refused by its Traffic Committee on 28 February 1906.

[10] The station consisted of two facing 100 ft (30 m)-long wooden trellis platforms,[7][8] on each of which was provided a pagoda passenger shelter.

[10] The timetable for August 1906 shows that Gretton Halt was served by seven weekday railmotor services each way between Honeybourne and St James.

[13] Gretton Halt closed on 7 March 1960,[6][14] the same day on which the local passenger service was withdrawn from the Honeybourne Line.

[15] The Gloucestershire Warwickshire Railway have reopened the line through the site of Gretton Halt, with the first services between Winchcombe and Gotherington running in 1997.
