The station opened as Pensarn but on 1 April 1885 it was renamed Llanbedr and Pensarn (Welsh: Llanbedr a Phensarn)[1] and then on 8 May 1978 it reverted to its original name of Pensarn upon the renaming of Talwrn Back station (one stop to the south) to Llanbedr. Most trains call only on request.[2]
