It is situated by Helwell Bay on the outskirts of Watchet. HistoryThe railway line was originally opened in 1862 and closed in 1971, but it was reopened by the West Somerset Railway on 28 August 1976. Doniford Beach Halt was opened on 27 June 1987 to serve the holiday camp built on the site of the nearby former Doniford army base.[1] DescriptionThe curved platform is situated on the north side of the line where it passes beneath the Watchet to West Quantoxhead coast road. The platform is built from concrete panels recovered from {{stnlnk|Montacute}} on the former branch line from {{stnlnk|Durston}} to {{stnlnk|Yeovil Pen Mill}} and the shelter is a former Great Western Railway pagoda made from corrugated iron which was recovered from {{stnlnk|Cove Halt}} on the Exe Valley Railway. ServicesTrains run between {{stnlnk|Minehead}} and {{stnlnk|Bishops Lydeard}} at weekends and on some other days from March to October, daily during the late spring and summer, and on certain days during the winter. Trains only call by request so passengers waiting to join are asked to make a clear signal to the driver as the train approaches, and people wanting to alight need to inform the train’s guard in good time.[2] {{heritage rail start}}{{rail line|previous={{stnlnk| Watchet}}|route=West Somerset Railway|col=654321|next={{stnlnk| Williton}}}}{{end box}}{{-}}References1. ^{{cite book| last = Oakley| first = Mike| title = Somerset Railway Stations| publisher = Redcliffe Press| year = 2006| location = Bristol| isbn = 1-904537-54-5}} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://westsomersetrailway.vticket.co.uk/calendar.php | title = Timetables | publisher = West Somerset Railway | date= 2014| accessdate = 6 July 2014}} External links{{Commons cat}}
