Midford Halt railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Midford Halt railway station existed for four years between 1911 to 1915. The halt was situated on the Limpley Stoke to Camerton railway that formed part of the Great Western Railway's development of the former Bristol and North Somerset Railway, and which followed the former Somerset Coal Canal. The line was only open to passenger traffic for seven years in all, from 1910 to 1915, and from 1923 to 1925, and Midford Halt opened a year late and then did not reopen for the second period. Midford Halt was in Wiltshire; the county boundary runs up to the B3110 road at the point where the canal/railway crossed the road, and the halt was on the Wiltshire side.
The halt was located about 400 metres from Midford railway station which was on the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway line.
