Glastonbury and Street railway station was the biggest station on the original Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway main line from Highbridge to Evercreech Junction until closed in 1966 under the Beeching axe. It was the junction for the short branch line to Wells which closed in 1951.
Opened in 1854 as Glastonbury, and renamed in 1886 to show that it also served the adjacent village of Street, it had three platforms, two for Evercreech to Highbridge services and one for the branch service to Wells. The station had a large goods yard controlled from a signal box.
The site is now used by a timber merchant and for storage. Replica level crossing gates have been placed at the entrance.
The former railway station canopy is now used as a shelter in the market area car park in Glastonbury.
