It is a relatively new station, opened on 12 December 1977[1] by British Rail. The line was built originally by the Sheffield and Midland Railway Companies' Committee in 1875 between New Mills Central and Manchester London Road (now Piccadilly station).
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.
Platform-level amenities are limited to waiting shelters, timetable posters, digital CIS displays and bench seating. Automated train announcements are also provided.
Access to the platforms is via footbridge and inclined ramps - these have steps, but can be negotiated by wheelchair users with assistance.[2]
