High Harrington railway station was opened by the Cleator and Workington Junction Railway (C&WJR) in 1879. It was situated half a mile south of Harrington Junction on the company's main line.[6] and served what was then the eastern extremity of Harrington in Cumbria, England.[7][8][9] The station is not to be confused with the current Harrington station a kilometre away on the coastal line.
