Cheriton Halt railway station
Cheriton Halt is a disused railway station on the South Eastern Main Line which served the village of Cheriton on the outskirts of Folkestone in Kent, England. The station opened in 1908 and closed in 1947.
== History ==
The South Eastern and Chatham Railway opened a new halt at the growing village of Cheriton on 1 May 1908, away from Shorncliffe later Folkestone West. The station, comprising two wooden platforms, was perched on the embankment just to the east of the underbridge on the B2063 Risborough Lane. Each platform was equipped with basic facilities: a ticket hut and waiting shelter, running-in boards and a row of gas lamps kept by the resident haltkeeper. Although it is rumoured that Cheriton Halt did issue tickets, none has yet come to light.〔(Railway Magazine, "The Elham Valley Railway", March 1979. )〕 The station was served solely by Elham Valley Railway trains and closed as a wartime economy measure during both wars, before closing definitively with the rest of the Elham Valley Railway in 1947.
