Dunkerton Colliery Halt railway station served the colliery near the village of Dunkerton, Somerset, England from 1911 to 1925 on the Bristol and North Somerset Railway.




History


The station opened on 9 October 1911 by the Great Western Railway, around a year after the line and the main stations had opened. It was, from the outset, a basic unmanned halt, and was intended to serve the villages of Tunley and Carlingcott as well as workers at the colliery itself. The station first closed to passengers on 22 March 1915, reopened on 9 July 1923 and closed again on 21 September 1925 to both passengers and goods traffic.
