General notes
Hesketh Bank Station was opened in 1878 as the Hesketh Bank and Tarleton station on the West Lancashire Railway (WLR) Company's Southport & Preston Railway which opened in stages between 19 February 1878 and 6 September 1882. It closed 'officially' on 30 April of that year. Despite local protests the passenger service was withdrawn with effect from 7 September 1964, and the line from Hesketh Park to Preston closed completely. The rails were removed and the station demolished the following year.
