Was a ground level stopping place during the passenger transport days of this line, and a 1965 reference mentioned that it was no longer used at that date.
There was a smaller stop following this called 'Noarlunga Sand Siding' opened in 1928 for loading sand. Closed in September 1950. A 1965 reference remarks that traces of the old siding could still be seen at that date on the curve before Pedlars Creek road crossing.
The stop is now completely disused, the entire Willunga railway line, Adelaide line having been dismantled in 1972.
