Originally planned by the Kingsbridge and Salcombe Railway, the station was amalgamated into the Great Western Railway before opening and this in turn was nationalised into British Railways on 1 January 1948. The station was closed by them.
The station is now a home with the platform canopy adapted as a conservatory. [1]
