Healey House railway station was in use from 1869 to 1949 on the Meltham branch line.
The station was opened on 6 July 1869 by the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway. It had two sidings nearby which were used during the Second World War to store chemical tankers, which were then taken to the ICI works in Huddersfield to create explosives. The station closed on 23 May 1949.[1][2]
