Nagata Station opened on 20 March 1959 as a Japanese National Railways station on what is now the Sotobō Line in the city of Ōamishirasato, Chiba Prefecture. The embankment work for the station was carried out as volunteer labour by a cumulative total of 2,470 local residents. A passing loop was added on 13 July 1968 along with a staffed counter, but the station was unstaffed again from 1 July 1972. With the 1 April 1987 privatisation it joined JR East, and on 1 April 1996 it returned to staffed status during normal working hours under a JR East subsidiary contract.

The station's construction was a community effort: a cumulative total of 2,470 local residents turned out to do the embankment work as volunteer labour.
