History of Washford Station

Washford Station is the first station on the ‘extension’ from Watchet to Minehead and is different in style from the buildings of the earlier line. The station opened in 1874 and unlike some of the other stations on the line is in the village it serves. The Station is painted in Southern Region colours setting it apart from the other stations, painted in the colours of the Great Western Railway and its successor the Western Region of British Railways. The small wooden building next to the main building is the original signalbox.

There is a small free parking area outside the station but Please DO NOT park in the next door pubs car park unless using their establishment.

Please ensure the cache remains well hidden and placed back in the same place,due to the high level of muggle activity.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO GO ON TO OR CROSS THE RAILWAY LINE TO ACCESS THIS CACHE, PLEASE DO NOT TRESPASS ON THE RAILWAY LINE.
