From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Southport Ash Street was a railway station in Southport, Lancashire, England. It opened as Southport Windsor Road on June 10, 1878 as the temporary terminus of the West Lancashire Railway from Preston.
On September 5, 1882 a permanent terminus was opened at Southport Central.
From November 1, 1887, the Liverpool, Southport and Preston Junction Railway to Altcar and Hillhouse also ran through Southport Ash Street.
