Kitayama Station opened on 1 May 1920 as a stop of the privately built Ehime Railway, a light-rail line from Wakamiya Junction near present-day Iyo-Nagahama to Uchiko. The line was nationalised on 1 October 1933 and re-gauged to 1,067 mm in October 1935, at which point the station became part of the Uchiko Line. Japanese National Railways later built a new Uchiko branch of the Yosan Line; Kitayama became part of that branch on 3 March 1986, and JR Shikoku took control on 1 April 1987. The station consists of a single side platform with only a shelter, served by local trains as part of the Yosan Line under the station number U12.

When the Uchiko Line was a dead-end branch, a small station building existed here, but it has since been demolished and no longer remains.
