Jessie Road Bridge Halt^[1] was an intermediate station situated on the Southsea Railway^[2] between Fratton^[3] and Albert Road Bridge Halt (sometimes called Highland Road^[4]).

Opened in 1904 and closed a decade later it was part of a concerted effort to boost revenue and thus see off competition from the burgeoning tramway network.^[5] The station's only platform was on the down line, the up line being out of use.^[6] The final nail in the line's coffin was a government directive issued shortly after the declaration of war^[4] that railways unable to support themselves would cease operations at the earliest opportunity; and, as the line clearly fell into this category, the last train ran early in August 1914.^[3]
