line. The station was named 'Collingham Bridge
' to avoid confusion with Collingham railway station
in Collingham, Nottinghamshire

Much of the centre of Collingham was demolished in the 1960s and 1970s and replaced with modern facilities. However the Elizabeth Court Shopping Precinct in Collingham is stone-built and sympathetically styled. As part of this, many small shops and cottages were demolished, changing the character of the village. Some small cottages were purchased by the Half Moon public house, demolished and are now a large car park.

Housing around Leeds Road is mainly ex-council housing (although not actually on Leeds Road itself), while housing on Wetherby Road is generally the oldest in Collingham.
