Wollstonecraft station opened on 1 May 1893 when the North Shore line opened from St Leonards to Milsons Point. Originally named Edwards Road, named after J. G Edwards, it was renamed on 1 September 1900.[3] The original buildings were replaced in the 1980s.[4]
The platform is located on a sharp 200-metre radius curve, leading to complaints from residents about the squeal from train wheels.[5]
In May 2022, an upgrade to the station was opened including lifts and regrading of the platform.
