Avon Causeway pub
Originally Hurn station, built 1862 by the Ringwood, Christchurch & Bournemouth Railway Co; closed 1935, and converted to pub & hotel. The pub has its own static diesel shunter & Pulman car; internally, it has several rooms rather blandly refurbished. Cask ales on offer at my visit: Wadworth 6X, Henry's, Bishop's Tipple, Horizon & Malt & Hops. As you might expect, lots of railway memorabilia inside.

Avon Causeway Hotel
This hotel was originally Hurn Railway Station. It opened in 1862 on a branch line between Ringwood and Christchurch - several years before the main line between Southampton and Bournemouth was opened. Once the main line was established few passengers used the branch. It and Hurn station closed in September 1935.
