Kingsley and Froghall railway station

Kingsley and Froghall station, situated on the Churnet Valley Line of the North Staffordshire Railway, was opened to both passengers and goods on 1 September 1849.

The CVR had been progressing slowly in preserving the line when, in the late 1990s, they had reached the station site.

Initial rebuilding of the station resulted in the down platform reopening for passengers on 11 August 2001.

Initially, this involved resurfacing the down platform and adding fences, a few small buildings and station furniture.

Kingsley and Froghall is currently the southern limit of passenger operations on the CVR, but plans exist to extend towards Oakamoor and Alton Towers.
