This is the new Gunnislake Station that was built across the road from the original station. This allowed the low bridge that spanned the main road to be demolished. In the 60s the railway ran past Gunnislake onward to Callington where the station was actually situated in Kelly Bray. This was shut along with many other West Country branch lines by Beeching. Gunnislake has only survived due to the poor roads that link Plymouth and the Tamer valley area which prevents a reasonable substitute bus service.
