Originally opened in 1874 by the London and South-Western Railway, merged with others to form the Southern Railway in the 1923 'Grouping'. Closed by British Railways in 1970. A preservation group attempted to save the line but were not successful.

The history of the station and the line can be found at http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/i/ilfracombe/index.shtml with photos of the station before and after closure.
