Here is Malcolm Saville writing in The Elusive Grasshopper in 1951:
The Dungeness terminus of the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway is not much more than a hundred yards from the lighthouse and consists of only one platform, a signal-box, the buildings housing the café, and a water tank filled with the aid of a windmill pump.
In order to dispense with a turntable and double track for reversing the engine, the single line runs into the station on a wide loop which, after completing nearly a full circle, rejoins the main track.
