Cement Mills Halt was a railway station between Cowes and Newport on the Isle of Wight. It was a public railway station throughout its life, although principally used by workers at the cement works in Stag Lane.[1] It was not included on public time tables[2] but was available to ramblers visible enough on the primitive gas-lit platform to stop the train "on request".[3] The trackway is now part of a national cycle route.[4]
West Medina Cement Works
Cement Mills Halt primarily served the West Medina Cement Works,[5] which was owned and operated by Francis and Company Cement Manufacturers. Near the village of Northwood, was the extensive cement works of Messrs. Francis, Son, & Co., of Nine Elms, London, who employed about 100 people at the West Medina Cement Works in the manufacture of Portland and Medina cements.[6] The Francis Co. had the contract to supply all the Portland cement for the construction of the fourth Eddystone Lighthouse.[7]
