Conifer House, Smeafield Presumably, so named after the conifers lining a burn nearby. Beyond is Smeafield Station House. It is hard to imagine how such a tiny settlement as Smeafield merited a station. Possibly originally a private station, it operated as a public station between 1871 and 1930 with only a dozen or so trains calling in a week.
