Burn Halt railway station
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Burn Halt (for Butterleigh) was a small railway station in Devon on the Exe Valley Railway between Exeter St Davids and Dulverton.
The halt opened in 1929 on a line that had originally opened in 1885. It was named after a local farm and served the scattered rural community of Butterleigh. It was never staffed and the station consisted of a single platform with a wooden shelter. It closed when passengers services on the Exe Valley line were withdrawn on 7 October 1963.
