The next station in a north easterly direction on the Mid-Cheshire Line is Knutsford.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

I was beginning to sense we were about to name all the stations outside the TfGM boundary in geographical order on the Mid-Cheshire line, so perhaps time to move away from there.

Bingley is also a DfT category "D" station that is managed by Northern.

Dent is another station that is a good distance away from the settlement it purports to serve.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

The station buildings at Dent were designed by the Midland Railway Company's architect John Holloway Sanders. He was also responsible for the buildings at Ilkley station.
