Truthall Halt on the Helston branch was opened on 3 July 1905. The small station, which was located just above the 300 feet (91 m) contour, served the villages of Trannack and Gwavas, and also Truthall Manor. It was the first stop about one and three-quarters miles (2.8 km) north of Helston.
Truthall originally had a short platform with an iconic "Pagoda Platform Shelter”.
