North Hayling station was a halt[2] on the single track Hayling Island branch, most often used to load oysters caught by local fishermen[3], but also ornithologists and ramblers[4]. The station, along with the line was closed, in 1963[5]. The station was located on the west coast of Hayling Island, very close to the coast[6]. The station was very basic, with a timber concourse and wooden shelter[7]. The station has been demolished and a section of the trackbed is now a footpath.[8].
