The former Lyminge station
The Elham Valley Railway opened in 1887 and closed completely in 1947. Most of the stations along the line closed to passengers in 1940 but a shuttle service from Folkestone to Lyminge operated between 7th October 1946 and 16th June 1947. The line closed completely on 1st October 1947 and the track through Lyminge was lifted in the late summer of 1953. All the information about the Elham Valley Railway and Lyminge station is given here - http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/l/lyminge/
In the late 1980s the station building, seen here, was renovated and is now Lyminge Library. The platforms were on the far side.
