Paulton Halt railway station

==History==
The Bristol and North Somerset Railway (B&NSR) opened a branch line from to on 1 March 1882, although it had been funded by the Great Western Railway (GWR) which worked the trains on the line from the outset and purchsased the B&NSR Company in 1884. The line was extended from Camerton to in 1910 where it made a connection with the GWR's Wilts, Somerset and Weymouth Line.
There was no station between Hallatrow and Camerton until was opened at the same time as the line was opened through to Limpley Stoke,〔 and on 5 January 1914 Paulton Halt itself was opened. The term 'halt' was used by the GWR to denote railway stations without staff or goods facilities.
Passenger services had only been calling for a little over a year when, on 22 March 1915, they were withdrawn from the line due to the war. They were eventually restored on 9 July 1923, four and a half years after hostilities had ceased. They did not last long as they were withdrawn again on 21 September 1925, never to be resumed. Freight trains continued to operate through the station until 8 February 1932 and the track was lifted shortly afterwards.
