The station was opened on 28 July 1873 and originally called Cow Bank, but was renamed to Seacroft on 1 October 1900. Passenger services were withdrawn on 7 December 1953 due to lack of use,[citation needed] and the station was closed to goods on 27 April 1964. The line it was on, between Boston and Skegness remains open.
