History

Conder was opened by the London and North Western Railway on 9 July 1883. However, the station was passed to the London, Midland and Scottish Railway during the Grouping of 1923, only to be closed seven years later on 7 July 1930.[1]

The site today

[edit]

The trackbed through the former station is now part of the Lancashire Coastal Way and the larger Bay cycleway. The station itself still stands.
