It closed in 1962,[1] although one train a day in each direction continued to stop to allow a local resident, Mrs A Boardman, to travel to work; this was immortalised by the British Movietone film It Only Stops For Her.[2] Trains continued to pass through the station until 1968 when the line was closed.
Stationmasters
From 1926, the stationmaster was also responsible for Hassop; by 1931, the stationmaster managed both Longstone and Monsal Dale instead.[3]
The station building was designed to match the nearby Thornbridge Hall and is Grade II listed;[12] it is now a private residence.[13] The trackbed through the station is part of the 8.5-mile (13.7 km) Monsal Trail, a shared-use path. Access to the trail can be made at the station site, via the ramp from Longstone Lane.
