History

The station opened to the public on 1 January 1915 on what was the Great Western and Great Central Joint Railway, which had been opened in 1906. It had previously been a private golf platform. The station was originally called Beaconsfield Golf Links Halt due to its close proximity to that golf club, and was renamed Seer Green on 16 December 1918 and Seer Green & Jordans on 25 September 1950 and reverted to Seer Green on 6 May 1974.[2]

The station was transferred from the Western Region of British Rail to the London Midland Region on 24 March 1974.[3]
