The Stationmaster's House, Hullavington
The Paddington / South Wales main line passes over the road, but is hidden by the trees.
As this is still called The Stationmaster's House, there must have been a station here! But all these smaller halts disappeared at the time of the Beeching cuts (if not before; the station here was, I suspect, primarily for military use) and on this line there is now no stop between Swindon and Bristol Parkway.
The house has, I assume, been extended since the GWR built it.

Site of Hullavington station, 1995
View northward on road to Norton, under bridge conveying the ex-GWR main line from London, Swindon etc. (to left) to South Wales via the Severn Tunnel (to right), also Bristol via Filton Junction, the 'Badminton line'. The station had been up to the right, until closed to passengers 3/4/61, to goods 4/10/65. (My Honda Accord features).

Hullavington railway station (site), Wiltshire
Opened in 1903 by the Great Western Railway on the line from Swindon to South Wales via the Severn Tunnel, this station closed in 1961 to passengers, and completely in 1965.
View west along the platform remains towards Badminton and the Severn Tunnel, a few months after the electric wires had been erected. Little trace of the station survives.
