History

The line from Bury to Holcombe Brook had opened on 6 November 1882, and originally there were three intermediate stations. A service of steam railmotors was introduced on the line in July 1905, and four more intermediate stations were opened at the same time; these small stations, or halts, included one at Woodhill Road, 3⁄4 mile (1.2 km) from Bury, which opened on 3 July 1905, but closed on 1 April 1918. It was reopened on 2 April 1934, and closed permanently with the end of passenger services on the line on 5 May 1952.[1][2]
