Ashcott railway station was a station on the Highbridge branch of the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway.

The station closed when trains were withdrawn during the Beeching Axe, taking effect on 7 March 1966.

0.5 miles (0.80 km) west of Ashcott existed Alexander Siding, which allowed exchange between the SD&JR and the Eclipse Peat Works 2 ft (610 mm) industrial tramway system, and hence distribution of cut peat products across the United Kingdom.

[1] The Eclipse also had a level crossing on the SD&JR branch further towards Glastonbury.

On 19 August 1949,[2] a British Railways passenger train from Highbridge collided with an Eclipse narrow gauge diesel locomotive crossing on the level and left the track, ending up in the Glastonbury Canal.
