Bardon Mill is a railway station on theTyne Valley Line, which runs betweenNewcastle andCarlisle viaHexham. The station, situated 27 miles 54 chains (27.7 mi; 44.5 km) east of Carlisle, serves the village ofBardon Mill inNorthumberland, England. It is owned byNetwork Rail and managed byNorthern Trains.

TheNewcastle and Carlisle Railway was formed in 1829, and was opened in stages.^[1] The station was opened in June 1838, following the opening of the line betweenGreenhead andHaydon Bridge.^[2][3][4]

In 1967, the station became an unstaffed halt, along with most of the other stations on the line that escaped theBeeching Axe. The former station house and waiting room remain as a private residence.

There is an operational (though usually unstaffed)signal box at Bardon Mill, which was constructed in the 1870s by theNorth Eastern Railway. It isGrade II listed, recognised as one of the earliest surviving NER Type N1 signal boxes.^[5]

In April 2019, the platforms at the station were extended ahead of the introduction of upgraded rolling stock, as part of the Great North Rail project.^[6][7]

The station has two platforms, both of which have a ticket machine (which accepts card orcontactless payment only), seating, waiting shelter, next train audio and visual displays and an emergency help point. There is step-free access to both platforms, which are linked by barrow crossing. There is a small car park and cycle storage at the station.^[8]

Bardon Mill is part of the Northern Trainspenalty fare network, meaning that a valid ticket or promise to pay notice is required prior to boarding the train.^[9]
