Hadlow Road railway station was a station on the Hooton to West Kirby line which served the village of Willaston. The main station building was located on the eastbound platform towards Hooton whereas a smaller waiting shelter stood on the westbound platform towards West Kirby. At the western end of both platforms was a level crossing with rather large gates; this was due to the angle at which the road crossed the railway lines.

Hadlow Road railway station closed in 1955. The station building and waiting shelter both exist and all of the station (excluding the westbound platform) has been preserved to give an authentic 1950's look. It is also one of two visitor centres for the Wirral Way with the other being based at Thurstaston.
