Priory Road Station, Wells

Although England's smallest city, Wells had 2 railway stations less than a quarter of a mile apart. The Great Western line from Yatton to Witham had a station at Tucker Street. This station (which the GW trains passed through without stopping) was the end of the Somerset and Dorset branch from Glastonbury. At the far end of the station the route to Tucker Street bears right, to Glastonbury (only a siding when the picture was taken) left.
