The station was opened on 12 July 1875 by the Whitland and Taf Vale Railway.

This had a stone building which was the stationmaster's house as well as a booking office and a waiting room.

Two goods sheds were behind the platform and at the south end of the station was the signal box.

At the north end was the goods yard which had two sidings and was controlled by the signal box.

The station closed to passengers on 10 September 1962[1] but remained open to goods traffic (besides parcels) until 27 May 1963.
