Elrington Halt station is a closed stone-built railway station situated on a single-track branch railway line in Northumberland, England, that runs from Allendale through the Border Counties Junction to Hexham.




History


Authorised in 1865, the Hexham to Allendale Railway was opened in stages, first to Langley-on-Tyne in 1867 and then to Allendale (then known as Catton Road) in 1868. Built to carry freight, primarily the product of local lead mines, the line eventually opened to passengers. The passenger service was run by the North Eastern Railway, which took over the line in July 1876.
The station was unstaffed and renamed Elrington Halt in August 1926. It was closed to passengers in September 1930 and completely when the line closed on 20 November 1950. The station building remains as a private residence.
