Ingestre and Weston railway station was a former British railway station in the village of Weston on Trent in Staffordshire.[1]
It was opened by the Stafford and Uttoxeter Railway in 1867. Originally called Weston it was later renamed Ingestre and Weston in deference to nearby Ingestre Hall the home of the Earl of Shrewsbury. It was renamed Ingestre for Weston in 1870 to avoid confusion with nearby Weston and Ingestre railway station on the North Staffordshire Railway.
The Stafford and Uttoxeter Railway was purchased for £100,000 by the Great Northern Railway in July 1881 and the line subsequently passed into LNER ownership with Railway Grouping in 1923.
Proceeding north west the line passed over the North Staffordshire Railway's main line from Stone to Colwich, the line climbed slightly towards Chartley and Stowe.
Passenger services finished in 1939.
