A going away from Feniton shot taken on the 23rd January 2014, Feniton station is visible in the distance. Copyright Roger Winnen. N.B. It is difficult to believe that there was once a goods yard to the left of this picture on the approach to the former Sidmouth Junction station. The Sidmouth branch converged with the main line passing under a bridge to the left of the one from which this picture was taken. This station closed along with the Sidmouth branch on the 6th March 1967 only to be re-opened as Feniton on the 3rd May 1971 .
