The Railway Tavern was built on Station Hill between 1861 and 1871, when it appeared in the census for Weeke. It was located near to the station and was the second closest pub to the station after the South Western Inn . On the front wall were the words “Eldridge Pope & Co’s Huntsman Ales & Stout”. It was positioned on the gravelled area forming part of the modern Record Office site. It was closed and demolished in the 1970s to make way for the building of the Hampshire Record Office which was eventually opened in 1993.
