Wells Priory Road
Opened on 15th March 1859. Closed to passengers on 29th October 1951 and goods on 12th October 1964. The station was simply called Wells when opened. In 1883 'Priory Road' was added. There was a stone built goods shed to the north of the station which was demolished in 1988 with the materials being reused at Cranmore on the East Somerset Railway. A wooden shed that was attached to it was re-erected at Washford on the West Somerset Railway.
