The station was opened by the L&YR on 1st January 1850 about a mile east of their Horbury & Ossett Station at the junction of their new Barnsley Branch with original M&LR line. The station closed in 1929 but was replaced by a new station on the main line a little closer to the town but named Horbury Millfield Road primarily to serve the railway wagon works of Charles Roberts &Co. This station closed in 1961.
