Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox station

Holton Village Halt was a railway halt on the East Lincolnshire RailwayШаблон:Sfn which served the village of Holton-le-Clay in Lincolnshire between 1905 and 1961. The station, which opened as part of a new motor train service between Шаблон:Rws and Шаблон:Rws, was the second station to serve the village after Holton-le-Clay and Tetney situated further to the south. The line through Holton-le-Clay remained open for freight until December 1980.

History

The station was opened on 11 December 1905Шаблон:Sfn to coincide with the introduction of a motor train service by the Great Northern Railway.Шаблон:Sfn It was the second station opened on the East Lincolnshire Line to serve the village of Holton-le-Clay in Lincolnshire. Holton-le-Clay and Tetney had opened in 1848Шаблон:Sfn but was over a mile to the south of the village and more convenient for Tetney to the east,Шаблон:Sfn whilst Holton Village Halt was in the village itself.Шаблон:Sfn The station had two low parallel railmotor platforms to the south of a level crossing over Tetney Lane, with a timber waiting shelter and lamp on each platform.Шаблон:Sfn A stationhouse was situated on the north side of the crossing.[1] It was of more substantial construction than the other halts on the line,Шаблон:Sfn such as Шаблон:Rws which was unlit and had only one passenger shelter.Шаблон:Sfn

Although the July 1922 timetable shows that passenger services only called at the station upon request, Шаблон:Sfn by August 1961 a total of seven trains from Grimsby called on weekdays, with an extra train running on Fridays.Шаблон:Sfn The station closed to passengers on 11 September 1961;Шаблон:Sfn it outlasted the earlier Holton-le-Clay station to the south by six years.Шаблон:Sfn

Present day

The halt was demolished by British Rail long before final closure of the line in December 1980 and little remains of it today.Шаблон:SfnШаблон:Sfn The level crossing gates to the south have survived and the stationhouse is in private occupation.[1] The village of Holton-le-Clay has expanded over the fields which bordered the line, which has led one author to speculate that the East Lincolnshire Railway, if it had remained open, would have become a vital link between the village and Grimsby.Шаблон:Sfn

On 28 September 1991, a Light Railway Order authorised the reinstatement of the East Lincolnshire Railway between Шаблон:Rws and the former Keddington Road level crossing near Louth, which would include the line up to Holton-le-Clay station.[2]

The Lincolnshire Wolds Railway plans to extend the line up to Holton-Le-Clay station. The former village halt has now been built over with a housing development and the track bed to the south re-developed.
