The station is located between Hickleton and Thurnscoe and Wrangbrook Junction, where the Wath branch joined the main line.

The single storey station building, on the Wath-bound platform was, unlike the others on the line, built of brick with a slate roof.

The station master's house, of a standard Hull and Barnsley style, was situated a road level by the underbridge.

Opening day was on 28 August 1902 and the station closed, along with the others on the line, on 6 April 1929.

[1] To the north of the station a spur connecting this line to the West Riding and Grimsby Railway at Hampole diverged.
