The station opened with the line on 1 August 1866, closed temporarily between 9 October 1880 and 1 February 1881, and closed permanently on 2 March 1959, although the line remained opened for goods until 1964.
The three intermediate stations between Spalding and Bourne had unusual names, because there were few nearby settlements; in the area there was a series of drainage ditches, the twentieth of which ran close to the station, hence the name "Twenty".

The former station buildings are still extant, unusually for this line, and in use as commercial premises by a well-respected Double Glazing company.
