Stainland and Holywell Green railway station served the villages of Stainland and Holywell Green in West Yorkshire, England from 1875 until 1929. Goods services ended in 1959.
The station consisted of a single platform to the west of a line curving from north (Greetland) to west (terminus), with a single station building and canopy.[1] The station site is now occupied by the Brookwoods Industrial estate, with the last section of the branch being used as an access road, passing under the bridge carrying Station Road.[2]
