It is a relatively new station, opening on 12 December 1977, by British Rail, on the line originally built by the Sheffield and Midland Railway Companies' Committee in 1875 between New Mills and Manchester London Road (now Piccadilly). Facilities The station has a staffed ticket office at street level, which is opened through the day on weekdays (06:30-20:50) and on Saturdays until early afternoon (07:20-14:25). Outside these times, tickets must be bought from the ticket machine or a promise to pay obtained.
