It was opened on 8 May 1848, by the York and North Midland Railway, and was originally known as Hull Cemetery. It closed to passengers in November 1854, before being reopened and renamed Hull Cemetery Gates in September 1866. It was renamed Hull Botanic Gardens on 1 November 1881, and remained thus until final closure on 19 October 1964.
The station was at street level immediately to the north of a level crossing across Spring Bank, just east of the junction with Princes Avenue. The site is now occupied by a public house, The Old Zoological and car park.
