Description:Chatterley station halt is on the left of the railway line just before the bridge. The Harecastle railway tunnel south portal can be seen in the distance.

The station was opened in 1864 was originally named Tunstall. In 1873 the North Staffordshire Railway opened a new loop line which went closer to Tunstall town centre, complete with a new station named Tunstall. The old Tunstall station was then renamed Chatterley. The station closed in September 1948 and the station site is no longer on the main railway as the line was diverted during the electrification of the West Coast main line.
