The station opened in 1903 by the Glasgow and Renfrew District Railway. The signal box was to the east of the line. There was a siding, called the Clyde Trust Siding, to the north west which served Renfrew Harbour. Deanside Depot was accessed by the reverse siding and was situated on the north side of Old Renfrew Road. The station closed in 1905.[1]
