This is Denbigh Hall Bridge, just north of Bletchley, on the old A5 (now the V4) Watling Street. These days it’s an insignificant part of the West Coast Main Line (except for the odd derailment)
However in 1836 this was the end of the London & Birmingham Railway. Due to works on Kilsby Tunnel further north, the line was opened from Birmingham to Rugby and London to Milton Keynes… except Milton Keynes didn’t exist yet, so the temporary halt was placed here for easy access to the A5!
In September 1838 the full line was opened and the station was abandoned, removed and forgotten about forevermore.
