Leigh (Staffordshire) Railway Station

Leigh railway station was a railway station in Staffordshire, England.

The railway line between Stoke-on-Trent and Uttoxeter was opened by the North Staffordshire Railway (NSR) in 1848 and a station to serve the village of Church Leigh was opened at the same time.

The station remained open until 1966 but goods facilities had been withdrawn in 1964.
