History
Upper Halliford Halt was opened on 1 May 1944 by Southern for the Windmill Road industrial zone which then had a wartime factory of the British Thermostat Company, manufacturing parts for the bombing of Germany. The second platform was opened on 6 May 1946.[1]
The platforms are linked by a devoted footbridge. The station building is only used for maintenance so a ticket machine instead stands.
- Footpaths/access
