The station opened in 1890 with the opening of the railway beyond Manly. It was originally named Cleveland. When the line was extended towards Cleveland point in 1897, the new terminus was named Cleveland and the former terminus was named West Cleveland. It was renamed Cleveland Central in 1914.[1]

The station closed in 1960 with the closure of the railway beyond Lota. The site of the station is now part of Linear Park on the eastern side of Ross Creek.

Following the closure of the station, the station master's house was moved to Middle Street in front of the Cleveland RSL. On 12 July 2017, the building was moved to a new location on Shore Street North to make way for a redevelopment of the Cleveland RSL.[2]
