StationName and dates
Seahouses (1898-1951)Opened on the North Sunderland Light Railway.
Description
This was a terminus in the west of Seahouses, close (but not actually at) North Sunderland Harbour. The station had a single platform with a timber building on a loop, the platform being on the west side of the loop, the opposite side from the village. The line terminated at a shed.
Two goods sidings were on the east side, with loading banks. There was a timber goods store.
It was a minimal station, in keeping with being the terminus of a light railway.
The line to Chathill closed in 1951.
The former station site is now a car park ('Seafield Car Park'). South and west of the station the trackbed remains as a dirt track.
