Ecclesfield East railway station

Ecclesfield East railway station was built by the South Yorkshire Railway on their line "Blackburn Valley" line between Sheffield Wicker and Barnsley. The station was intended to serve the parish of Ecclesfield, near Sheffield, South Yorkshire, although it is some distance from the centre of the village.

The original railway station was opened in November 1854 and closed just two years later to be replaced by a new structure which closed on 7 December 1953. The new station, with staggered platforms linked by a footbridge had buildings which dated from 1876 and cost £1985 (including sidings and approach road). These buildings are identical to those at Meadowhall although it had staggered platforms.

The nearby station of Ecclesfield West was initially also known as Ecclesfield.
