Cressage was a station on the original Severn Valley line, 32&frac12; miles from [[Hartlebury]] and 8&frac14; miles from Shrewsbury. When the line opened in 1862 it had a single platform and a siding, but by 1893/94 it had acquired an additional platform with a passing loop and signal box.<ref>Severn Valley Railway, A View From the Past, M A Vanns</ref>.
The station closed on 9 September 1963, when passenger services between [[Bewdley]] and [[Shrewsbury]] were suspendedwithdrawn. The former station master’s house is now a private residence.
