History
Polsham (also spelled Poulsham) is split into two parts with half of the village on the A39 road, which includes a pub (The Three Wells), and half of the village around 600 yards down a country lane. Polsham railway station was on the Somerset and Dorset Joint Railway line. This single platform station, opened in December 1861, was the only stop between Wells and Glastonbury. There is still a 1920s two-storey station house on the site but all traffic ceased through the station on 29 October 1951.
