caption_attribution_description: English: The former Rishworth railway station, Barkisland This was the terminus of the line from Sowerby Bridge up the Ryburn Valley. It was intended to continue to Lancashire, but this never happened. The OS map shows what might be the remains of platforms, but nothing can now be seen of them but piles of rubble amongst the vegetation.
context_page_description: Rishworth railway station was a railway station on the Rishworth Branch, built by the Lancashire & Yorkshire Railway, to serve the village of Rishworth in Calderdale, West Yorkshire, England. It opened in 1881 and closed to passenger services in 1929; goods traffic ceased in 1953.
  While the station was open, services ran from and to Sowerby Bridge north of Rishworth. A planned extension of the line towards Rochdale was never built.
  None of the station buildings are still standing, but there are remains of a platform on the overgrown site.
