Opened in 1887 by the Somerset and Dorset Joint railway, this station (which was never more than one platform) closed in 1966. It had replaced an earlier station a couple of hundred metres further north, and the line continued under the London Waterloo-Yeovil line which can just be seen straight ahead on the embankment. View south towards Henstridge and Bournemouth. The single track would have run where the pond is with a single platform to the right.
