The station was opened in 1913 following a request from local Unley Council ratepayers.[2]
The ticket office was closed in 1921, but reopened shortly after with Mrs. M. Murphy appointed agent for the sale of tickets.[3] Significant improvements were undertaken in 1935 to add a new waiting room and ticket office.[4]
