The original station opened on 18 July 1832; originally named Desford Lane, it was renamed Desford by 26 April 1833.[1] This station was closed on 27 March 1848, being replaced by a new station, also named Desford, sited 135m (443feet) to the west of the original. The station was about 0.6miles northeast of Desford village, close to the hamlet of Newtown Unthank.
