The station opened in 1863 and is still there on Golden Hillock Road (left). It orginally, and primarily, served the Birmingham Small Arms factory on Armoury Road. The station once had 4 platforms. Perhaps the gateway to the right on the B&W photo was an entrance to those platforms ? If so they're now closed off by a brick wall.
