Dunsbear Halt was a relatively well-used halt[2] on the initially privately run[3] North Devon and Cornwall Junction Light Railway. Opened in 1925 and closed to passenger traffic 40 years later in 1965.[4] The line remained open for freight between Barnstaple railway station and Meeth until 1982.[5] Today it forms part of the popular Tarka trail, and has recently been renovated by conservation volunteers.[6]
