Brimley Halt was a railway station open in 1928 by the Great Western Railway (GWR) to serve the south end of Bovey Tracey in South Devon, England. It had a single platform and was located on a curved section of track without a passing loop or sidings. After closure to regular passenger services in 1959 its last known use by a passenger train was a special train to Bovey Tracey which stopped at Brimley Halt on 5 July 1970,[2]. The track had been lifted by 8 September 1975.[3]
The site of the station was destroyed by the construction of a new A382 road along the course of the trackbed.[4]
