The station was opened on 12 July 1875 by the Whitland and Taf Vale Railway.
This had a waiting room and a booking office, both made of timber.
Opposite the platform was the goods yard with a loop that served a cattle dock.
Nearby was a ground frame in a wooden cabin which controlled the adjacent level crossing and allowed access to the goods yard.
It was downgraded to a halt in September 1956, thus the suffix 'Halt' was added to its name, but it remained staff to use the ground frame.
