The original Lytham railway station was the Lytham terminus of a branch of the Preston and Wyre Joint Railway from Kirkham in Lancashire, England. It opened, along with the branch, on 16 February 1846; the road it was located in became known as Station Road. It was built in a Renaissance style from Longridge stone. A branch was also built to the dock at Lytham Pool. In 1863, the Blackpool and Lytham Railway opened a separate line to its own station in Ballam Road, Lytham. A fire station now occupies the site.
