It was located on what is now known as the Filton line. It was served by stopping trains to Severn Beach (via Pilning), Avonmouth (via Chittening) and Swindon (via Badminton). HistoryThe station was opened in 1864 by the Bristol and South Wales Union Railway, which was absorbed by the Great Western Railway in 1868. The station passed to the Western Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. It was closed by the British Railways Board in 1964. {{Historical Rail Start}}{{rail line|previous=Stapleton RoadLine and station open |next=Horfield Line open, station closed |route=Great Western Railway Bristol and South Wales Union Railway |col={{GWR colour }} }}{{s-end}} The site todayTrains running between Bristol Temple Meads and Bristol Parkway pass the site. Remains of one of the platforms are clearly visible. In 2001 the station was selected to be reopened as "Ashley Down" and used as a stop for the proposed Bristol Supertram project. This was planned to operate as a 30-minute service between Broadmead Shopping Centre and North Bristol, but the project was cancelled in 2004. FutureThe line through Ashley Hill was due to be electrified by 2017 as part of the Great Western Main Line electrification project.[1][2] The electrification scheme also includes the four-tracking of Filton Bank, which will allow more services between Parkway and Bristol Temple Meads, and separate fast inter-city services from local stopping services.[3][4] It was suggested that Ashley Hill station be reopened as part of the Greater Bristol Metro scheme.[5][6] The reopening was supported by Bristol City Council, Network Rail, local MPs and local rail groups,[7] and would have provided rail access to local colleges and to the County Ground, home of Gloucestershire County Cricket Club.[8] However, it was ruled out by Network Rail due to modern regulations regarding the track gradient in stations, and also due to the high cost of removing an embankment.[9][10] However in January 2018, it was revealed that there was plans for reopening the station (although referred to as Ashley Down) as part of the reopening of Henbury Spur.[11] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.networkrail.co.uk/uploadedFiles/networkrailcouk/Contents/Improvements/The_Great_Western/WesternVision.pdf |title=Modernising the Great Western |publisher=Network Rail |accessdate=9 June 2012 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130413065743/http://www.networkrail.co.uk/uploadedFiles/networkrailcouk/Contents/Improvements/The_Great_Western/WesternVision.pdf |archivedate=13 April 2013 }} 2. ^{{cite news |url= http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/Bristol-London-line-electrified/story-11312089-detail/story.html |title=Bristol to London line to be electrified |work=This Is Bristol |publisher=Northcliffe Media |date=23 July 2009 |accessdate=5 April 2012}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/Green-light-long-awaited-rail-improvements/story-16547255-detail/story.html|title=Green light for long-awaited rail improvements|work=The Post, Bristol|date=17 July 2012|accessdate=29 September 2013|publisher=Northcliffe Media}} 4. ^{{cite magazine|magazine=RAIL|title=Ship-shape and Bristol fashion|author=Broadbent, Steve|issue=696|date=16–29 May 2012|pages=46–53}} 5. ^{{cite web |url= http://www.westofengland.org/media/98508/item%2004%20greater%20bristol%20metro%2013%20march%202009.pdf |title=Item 04: Greater Bristol Metro |first=James |last=White |publisher= West of England Partnership |date=13 March 2009 |accessdate=28 December 2011}} 6. ^{{cite news |url= http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/Campaign-trains-Bristol-Temple-Meads-half-hour/story-14446079-detail/story.html |title=Campaign for trains from Bristol Temple Meads every half hour |work=This is Bristol |publisher=Northcliffe Media |date=17 January 2012 |accessdate=19 January 2012}} 7. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/Study-place-plans-new-station/story-19805883-detail/story.html#axzz2hJnEGXEc|title=Study to take place into plans for new station|work=The Bristol Post|publisher=Northcliffe Media|date=17 September 2013|accessdate=10 October 2013}} 8. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/New-tracks-new-stations-provide-opportunities/story-19800960-detail/story.html|author=Wood, Dave|date=16 September 2013|accessdate=10 October 2013|title=New tracks, new stations will provide opportunities}} 9. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.bristolpost.co.uk/Costs-set-signal-end-plan-reopen-city-railway/story-20038084-detail/story.html|title=Costs set to signal end of plan to reopen city railway station|work=Bristol Post|publisher=Local World|date=6 November 2013|accessdate=26 November 2013}} 10. ^{{cite magazine|title=Regional News|magazine=RAIL|publisher=Haymarket Publishing|date=27 November – 10 December 2013|page=24|author=Johnston, Howard|volume=736}} 11. ^
