Millendreath railway station

Millendreath railway station was a proposed railway station in Millendreath, Cornwall which would have formed one of four stations on the St Germans & Looe Railway.[1] The railway was proposed in 1935 and authorised by the Great Western Railway (Additional Powers) Act 1936 (c. ci),[2] and work commenced in 1937. By the time that war began in 1939 only a small amount of work had been completed, and it was abandoned. Millendreath station itself was unbuilt, although the adjacent golf course was constructed but subsequently abandoned.[3]
