History
Nunozaki Station opened on 4 February 1915 on what is now the Ichibata Electric Railway Kita-Matsue Line. It was shifted slightly toward Sono on 5 June 1916, lengthening the Unshū-Hirata section from 1.8 to 2.2 miles and shortening the Sono section. The station was destaffed on 17 January 1983, although a morning ticket clerk continued to be posted on weekdays until around 2004. With the parent Ichibata Electric Railway's transition to a holding-company structure on 1 April 2006, operations transferred to the newly established Ichibata Electric Railway Co. The platform — a single side platform on a tight curve — sits on the right facing Matsue and has no station building; the station bears number 10 on the line.
