Tower Hill station was created by the Massachusetts Central Railroad on October 1, 1881.

It was designed in the same general style as the nearby Weston and Wayland stations, but without roof overhangs on the ends.

In the early 1950s B&M built a simple wooden open-air shelter for passengers between the closed station and the tracks.

About ten years later B&M tore down the station but passengers could still use the shelter stop.

[2]: 51-52 Service on the Central Mass Branch was terminated on November 26, 1971 due to poor track conditions and low ridership.
