Bradley Fold opened with the line on 20 November 1848. It was located east of Bradley Lane which crossed the line using a level crossing. The line was double track, and the station was provided with two platforms connected directly to the lane.
Bradley Fold was provided with goods facilities west of Bradley Lane on the south side of the line. They comprised two sidings, a loading platform and a 5-ton lifting crane.
To the south of the station was the Tonge Lane Colliery. It was served by its own branch line which had connections to the main line going east and west. The west-facing connection was to the west of the station goods yard. The east-facing connection was at the eastern end of the passenger station.
