This station was built in 1886, on the Birkenhead Railway's branch line from Hooton to West Kirby. This line passed through the western side of Heswall, alongside the River Dee. This station closed to passengers in 1956 and closed completely in 1962. While being on the line currently occupied by the Wirral Way any walker following the former track bed will not pass close to the station's site; the original station house was sold into private ownership and then subsequently sold on for development (during early 1970's). The site was raised and built over in the 1960s and all walkers, cyclists, etc. must take a detour to regain the track bed.
