Kirkby Bentinck railway station is a former station on the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway which served the town of Kirkby-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, England from 1893 to 1963.

History

Kirkby Bentinck railway station was on the Annesley branch of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway, later the Great Central Railway on the section between Nottingham Victoria and Sheffield Victoria.[1] The station was opened in January 1893 and closed in March 1963 after 70 years in service.[2] Until 1 August 1925 it was named Kirkby & Pinxton station, and it appeared on Ordnance Survey maps as Kirkby & Bentinck station.[1]

Nothing remains of Kirkby Bentinck station apart from two concrete poles that held the station sign and the station master's house on Church Hill.[1]
