Newchapel and Goldenhill railway station was a station on the Potteries Loop Line located between the villages of Newchapel and Goldenhill in Staffordshire, England, in what is now Packmoor.[2]
Opened in 1874 the station was known simply as Goldenhill (sometimes referred to as Golden Hill) until November 1912 when it was renamed Newchapel and Goldenhill.[1]
The station closed to passengers in 1964 along with the rest of the Loop. The trackbed is now a walkway but part of the platform edging is still in existence.[3]
