Weston Mill Halt railway station was named after a mill and quay with its lime kiln sitting on Weston Mill Lake next to the River Tamar.[2] The small settlement of Weston Mill also lay near by and the halt was opened as part of Plymouth's suburban network development, together with other halts such as the nearby Camels Head Halt, by the London and South Western Railway in 1906, closing in 1921[1] or Sunday 4 May 1942.[3] It was located on the outskirts of the city not far from the Great Western Railway main line's Weston Mill Bridge.[4]
