Lea Green formerly Sutton
(1830 - 1955 2000 -)
The L&M railway line opened in September 1830 but Lea Green didn't appear in the company timetable until March 1 1831. It closed to passengers on March 7 1955
Lea Green was developed into a two platform station with its platforms partly staggered, the eastbound platform was partially under the road bridge and the westbound was on the west side of the bridge
The station was renamed Sutton in 1844 but reverted back to Lea Green in June 1848
After closure in 1955, the station house remains in non-railway use surrounded by a scrapyard
The entrance ramp to the eastbound platform is largely intact, as part of a private garden. For the westbound platform, the approach road and staircase from the overbridge still exist, in use as track access point
In September 2000, a new Lea Green Station was opened by Merseytravel to the east of the original station
