The distance between the platforms and the large clearance between the remaining running lines is a legacy from when Kemble first opened because it originally accommodated Brunel's {{track gauge|7ft0.25in}} [[Broad-gauge railway|broad gauge]] tracks. These were changed to [[standard gauge]] tracks in 1892.

Kemble railway station is a railway station that serves the village of Kemble in Gloucestershire, England. The station is on the Swindon to Gloucester "Golden Valley" line, 90 miles 79 chains (146.4 km) from the zero point at Paddington.[1] Despite its rural location, Kemble station has a high number of passengers, due mainly to the proximity of Cirencester.

History

[edit]

The station was opened by the Great Western Railway (GWR) as an exchange station on 12 May 1845 with the line opening from Swindon to Gloucester. Only on 1 May 1882 did it become a public station replacing the nearby Tetbury Road.[2]

The distance between the platforms and the large clearance between the remaining running lines is a legacy from when Kemble first opened because it originally accommodated Brunel's 7 ft 1⁄4 in (2,140 mm) broad gauge tracks. These were changed to standard gauge tracks in 1892.

Until the 1960s the station was a junction, with services to the nearby market towns of Cirencester (to the northeast) and Tetbury (southwest). Both the Tetbury branch line and the Cirencester Branch Line were closed to traffic under The Reshaping of British Railways, the first day without service being 6 April 1964.

British Rail reduced the line to Swindon to single track in 1968 but the second track was reinstated in 2014.

Stationmasters

[edit]
  • Jeremiah Greenaway ca. 1869 – 1900[3]
  • John William Boyd 1900[4] - 1922[5] (formerly station master at Tetbury)
  • G. Evans 1922 – 1929[6] (formerly station master at Purton)
  • M.E. Waters until 1935[7] (also station master at Cirencester Town, afterwards station master at Cirencester Town)
  • C. Feldwick. 1935 – 1942[8] (afterwards station master at Cirencester Town)
  • Walter John Butt Watts from 1942 (formerly station master at Brimscombe)

Description

[edit]

The station has two platforms in use. The former Tetbury bound platform remains but the track has been lifted. The building on the down platform (no. 2) has been out of use for several years, containing toilets and a waiting room, which are still in situ. On the former Cirencester platform, a short stub of track remains for the occasional stabling of track machines. This ends at a buffer stop just before the station car park. In 2013, Cotswold District Council refused an application by Network Rail to demolish part of the Grade II listed Cirencester bay platform in connection with the redoubling of the line from Swindon.[9] According to the Council, the platform was still in a good state of repair and any public benefit from the demolition would not outweigh the damage that would be caused to the historical significance of the station.[9] The station has a ticket office and a small café. The limestone bridge, at the south end of the station, was Grade II listed from 5 November 2015[10] and the station[11] and water tank from 27 February 1986.[12]
