Description
This was a station on the Newtyle and Glammis Railway just north of the village of Kirkinch. The station closed with the re-gauging of the line when it became part of the Scottish Midland Junction Railway main line from Perth to Forfar [2nd].
The station was probably minimal, possibly just a place where trains halted.
A level crossing remained here until line closure. A railway cottage remains by the crossing.
