Great Western half-way houses, Steventon
Steventon's railway station has long gone but this pair of houses built in 1839-40 provide a reminder of its importance as a half-way point on the Paddington-Bristol line. Station House, the nearer in the picture, was built for the railway's superintendent and until 1843 board meetings were held here. The GWR's resident engineer J H Gandell and Isambard Kingdom Brunel are jointly credited with the design.

Looking at the station
Looking along the railway which will take you to Swindon and Bristol. I think Steventon station used to be just ahead on the right. Railbuff came to my rescue with this photo taken 30 years previously which confirms there was a station Image
