Opened in 1844 by the Bristol & Exeter Railway, later part of the Great Western Railway, this station closed to passengers in 1964 and completely in 1965. View south west towards Silverton and Exeter St. Davids. Both platforms are gone but remarkably, the small station building survives. The goods shed also survives, just out of view to the right.
