The station opened in 1894 and served as the terminus of the Henley Beach railway line. Sometime prior to 1940 (perhaps as early as 31 October 1913[1]), the terminus station on the line (Henley Beach station) was closed, with the "Jetty Road" station becoming the terminus and being renamed Henley Beach, resulting in 4 stations on the line.[2] Facilities consisted of an island platform and shelter with a ticket office.
It was closed on 31 August 1957 because of dangerous conditions caused by vehicles on Military Road. After closing, the station has since been demolished.
