Trentham railway station was built by the North Staffordshire Railway (NSR) as part of the main line south from Stoke towards Stafford and served the village of Trentham, Staffordshire, England.
The original station opened along with the first section of the Stafford to Manchester Line in 1848. As the station was the closest to Trentham Hall, at the time the principal residence of the Dukes of Sutherland, new station buildings were constructed in 1851 to a design by Charles Barry.
