Trefnant railway station served the village of Trefnant in North Wales.

History

It opened in 1858 [1] and closed for passengers in 1955 and freight in 1957.[ citation needed] Works were commenced in 1864 to double the line between Trefnant and the railway's junction with the Mold and Denbigh line. [2]

The station platform and the siding area was still visible until the Llys Teg housing association estate was built around 1990.

There was a railway bridge at the top of "Hafod" on the A541 in the village which is now demolished but is still visible as a hump in the road.
