Notes: The original Newmarket Station was built by the Newmarket & Chesterford Railway Company in 1848. The N & CR was bought up by Eastern Counties Railways in the mid 1850's, the station had a single platform terminus which required reversal when the line was extended northwards to Bury St. Edmunds on 1st April 1854. This extension involved tunneling under Warren Hill to the north of the 1848 station.

When the line to Ely opened on 1st September 1879 a new island platform was opened and a slightly lower level a short distance to the east of the original station. The two platforms were joined by a footbridge. The through portion was replaced by a much large station half a mile south on 7th April 1902.

The original platform was retained for race specials and known as Warren Hill (and Newmarket High Level) until 1902 when a new station for race specials was opened at the north end of Warren Hill tunnel. The original platform was still occasionally used after that date for grooms accompanying horses until at least 26.7.1954.

The 1848 station remained in use as a goods station until 1967. The track was lifted in 1968 but the buildings survived until about 1980. There was an outcry when they were demolished as the front of it was supposed to be listed.

The site has now been lost under Armstong Close which was built on a raised platform that once supported the station and a retaining wall remains behind five cottages, (presumably ex railway cottages), on the lower edge of the site, on All Saints Road. This latter road curves round and runs along side the old station site to its junction with Old Station Road.
