Portbury railway station
Former railway station in England
Portbury railway station was a railway station serving the village and shipyard of Portbury in Somerset, near Bristol, England. It opened in 1867 and closed in 1962.[1] The line through the station was closed in 1964 and the former station house is now a private dwelling.
A three-mile stretch of the former line between Portbury and Portishead was bought by North Somerset Council in 2008 in order to keep the option of re-opening the line alive.[2]
