Hendford Station was the first to be built in Yeovil, Somerset. It was opened, when the line from Durston to Yeovil was opened in Oct 1853. It was only used as a passenger station for less than 4 years (when Yeovil Town opened) and was converted to a goods yard.

With growth in the town, Hendford Halt was opened in 1932, just west of where the original station was. Both sadly are now closed, but this video looks at the stations and what little remains today.

Thank you to the South Somerset Heritage Collection for their help. And to everyone who helped me out.

This is the first video I have made fully on my own, without my dad's help. If I have made any mistakes, please correct me. I have done the best I can with the information, but we all make mistakes.

I am on the look out for more information about the stations on the Durston to Yeovil Railway, please feel free to reach out to me if you have anything.
