Knott End

The Garstang & Knot-End Railway was incorporated by an Act of June 30, 1864, to construct a line from the Lancaster & Preston Junction Railway (afterwards the L.N.W.R.) to Knott End, a distance of 11¾ miles. … From Pilling to Knot-End (then spelled thus) there was a grass-grown half-completed railway, and eventually a new company called the Knott End Railway Company was incorporated in 1898 to complete this.
