Nunnington railway station was located about 0.5 miles (0.8 km) west of Nunnington in North Yorkshire, England.

History

It opened on 9 October 1871[1] and the regular passenger service ceased in 1953 although goods traffic and special passenger trains until the line closed completely in August 1964.[2]

The station building is now a private house and can still be seen from the Nunnington to Oswaldkirk back road, just before the cutting at Caulkeys Bank.
