Waverton railway station (Cheshire)

1

Waverton is a former railway station that served the village of Waverton in Cheshire West and Chester, England. From 1898 to 1959, it replaced the first station which was open between 1840 and 1898.

History

This station, which opened on the day the first station closed, had two side platforms with matching buildings and canopies. It also had goods sidings. Passengers services ceased in 1959 and the station closed completely six years later.

Present day

Today, only part of the eastbound station building remains. The building on the former Chester-bound platform has been demolished. In 2018, Stagecoach Merseyside & South Lancashire opened a bus depot on the former station site.
