Chilcompton railway station

Chilcompton railway station was a station on the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway at Chilcompton in the county of Somerset in England and opened on 20 July 1874.

In 1876 a loop and second platform were opened on the Up side, controlled from a 16-lever signal-box on the Down platform, which also controlled access to the goods yard.

In 1886 the line to Midsomer Norton and Radstock was doubled and a replacement 13 lever signal box provided just beyond the Binegar end of the Up platform.

As of 2020, The station is currently overgrown and partly fenced off in a transport yard.

[1] The line south from Midsomer Norton South 72 chains (1,400 m) has been rebuilt by the Somerset & Dorset Railway Heritage Trust, whose aim is to restore a further stretch of the line as far as Chilcompton itself.
