Description

This short lived station replaced Sheriffhall [1st]. It was probably located to the south side of the A6106 overbridge and opened with the Edinburgh and Hawick Railway (North British Railway).

This was a rural location which not doubt led to the early closure. After closure the nearest stations were at Millerhill and Glenesk.
