Site Description

There was an early and short lived station here at the end of a lane running from the Holywood Road. From just before the station to just after the original Tillysburn station, there was an industrial railway on the seaward side of the line which was used for the harvesting of seaweed. No motive power was used - humans moved the rail wagons on the line.
