Par
(1859 - )
Par railway station serves the villages of Par, Tywardreath and St Blazey, Cornwall and it is the junction for the Atlantic Coast Line to Newquay
The station opened with the Cornwall Railway on May 4 1859. The departure and arrival stations are spacious edifices, both having verandahs projecting over the platforms, with convenient waiting rooms, ticket office, porter and lamp rooms and conveniences
The goods shed was approved by the directors in February 1860 and was built of stone
The station was too small to warrant a station master, but the "booking constable" was paid an additional £22 each year by the Post Office to also act as a post master. Two cottages were built just outside the station to house railway staff
A connection from Par to the Cornwall Minerals Railway line to Newquay was opened on January 1 1879
