Kirkham Abbey railway station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kirkham Abbey railway station was a minor railway station serving the village of Kirkham on the York to Scarborough Line and was opened on 5 July 1845 by the York and North Midland Railway. It closed on 22 September 1930.

The station was originally just named Kirkham, but the 'Abbey' suffix was added on 1 June 1875, to take into account the proximity of the ruins of Kirkham Priory.
