Approach from the Stirling Highway side at the Glyde Street pedestrian signals. This southern platform entrance includes stairs; check the access map for ramp routes.
The railway itself opened between Perth and Fremantle in 1881, with regular passenger services stopping here from 1894. The station was originally named Cottesloe Beach, became Buckland Hill in 1931 and finally Mosman Park in 1937 as the surrounding district changed names. Old photographs labelled “Cottesloe Beach Station” therefore show this stop - not today's Cottesloe Station farther north.
Glyde Street is just beside the station on the East side and worth a detour for its cafes, restaurants and local businesses.
The station also works as a southern bookend for a longer one-way walk through Cottesloe. Head to the coast, follow it north through South Cott, the main beach and North Cott, then catch the Fremantle Line home from Cottesloe or Grant Street Station.
Access is available from both the Curtin Avenue and Stirling Highway sides. Transperth currently classifies Mosman Park as an Assisted Access station, so check the station map and accessibility information beforehand if step-free access or mobility assistance matters for your trip.
