This intermediate station on the line from Perth (Almond Valley Junction) to Crieff. It was opened on the 21 May 1866 by the Perth, Almond Valley and Methven Railway, which was subsequently incorporated into the Caledonian Railway and later into the London, Midland and Scottish Railway. The station closed to regular passenger traffic on 3 May 1965 and to goods traffic on 11 September 1967.

G Daniels and L Dench 1980; J Thomas and D Turnock 1989.

The line of the railway can be distinguished as a low bank heading W from the remains of the platform which survive as a raised bank. To the E, what is probably the old station house has been converted to residential use under the name of 'The Old Crossings House'.

Visited by RCAHMS (RJCM, JRS), 9 November 1995.
