The station was originally called just "Withington", but was renamed after the Grouping of 1923 allocated the M&SWJR to the GWR, which already had a Withington station at the village of the same name in Herefordshire.

The station was always lightly used and from 1956 staffing was withdrawn and it was downgraded to halt status.

The line closed to all traffic in 1961[1][2] and the station buildings were demolished, though traces of one of the platforms remain.
