Stannington Railway Station (1847 - 1964)


The railway station, located part way between the villages of Stannington and Netherton, was opened on the 1st of March 1847 by the Newcastle & Berwick Railway. It was initially named Netherton (the old name for the village of Nedderton), but was renamed to Stannington on the 1st of January 1892. A settlement grew up around the station, taking the name Stannington Station. The station was closed to passengers in September 1958, but remained open for goods up to August 1964. The main station building, designed by Benjamin Green, still remains and has been converted for residential use. It stands near to the level crossing on the East Coast mainline railway.
