Butts Lane Halt was a railway station in the Blowick suburb of Southport, Merseyside.

History

The station opened on 18 December 1909 as a halt on the Liverpool, Southport and Preston Junction Railway, and consisted of simple cinder based platforms at track level, situated on an embankment to the south of Butts Lane bridge.

The station closed on 26 September 1938, though the line remains open and is today used by trains on the Northern Manchester to Southport Line.
