And if you look at Colonel Cobb's railway atlas of the UK, some places
had two stations not distinguished by different names, but after
nationalisation had suffixes attached (e.g. Ingrow East and Ingrow West
in West Yorkshire).


There's also those where the stations are named after the railway company,
not the geographical location. See Hertford North, which is exactly due
west of Hertford East. Or Wigan North Western, in southern Wigan. Named
after the GNR, GER and LNWR respectively.
