Site Description

There was a short lived station here opening in 1854 as a private halt for Robert Warren of the Killiney Hill Estate and generally in 1855. However, it closed at the end of 1857 when it was replaced by a station at Killiney. There is a footbridge over the line south of the station site, giving access to the White Rock bathing area on the beach below. South of this is an attractive accommodation arch over the railway.
