The station opened on 1 January 1930 by the Great Western Railway. It was situated on the east side of a minor road on the C3009. The local area was known as Mattel but GWR misspelled it as 'Martell'. This spelling error was not corrected in Bradshaw or on the tickets. There were only 70-80 tickets sold per week, thus it closed on 25 October 1937.[1][2]
