Cornborough railway station was a minor railway station or halt/request stop in north Devon, close to Westward Ho!, serving holiday makers visiting the cliff walks and nearby beach.
[5] As stated, the halt was built to serve passengers aiming to walk on the Torrs, etc.
It was in a very exposed area and trains were often reduced to a snail's pace due to high winds in winter.
[6] Cornborough Cliffs Halt had a platform, but no shelter and was sited on the up side of the line next to the footpath at the waters edge.
[5] In January 1901, the first train, with one carriage, ran from Bideford to Northam carrying a few friends of the Directors.
