Brooksby Railway Station

From Graces Guide

The station opened in 1846 on the Syston and Peterborough Railway. The station buildings were larger than most on the line, considering it served a small village.

The stationmasters' house was designed by the architects William Parsons and Sancton Wood. The contractors T. W. and H. Herbert undertook to build it for £1,921.

It closed in 1961.

It remained in use for goods until 1964.

The station became grade II listed building in 1979.
