Henham Halt was opened by the Great Eastern Railway in 1913 [1], like the other stations on the light railway it had a single low short platform and very basic facilities. A grounded coach body was used as a waiting room. There was no booking office and only a single oil lamp, though there was a gents! [2] The station was closed in 1952 when passenger services ended on the line.
