Location

Barton Stacey railway station was a small single platform halt serving an army camp near the village of Barton Stacey. It was opened by February 1940; there was a regular workers' train from Southampton by that date.[2] Little else is known, primarily because of its military association; and its whole life was during wartime — it closed in December 1940
