Lister Hall is a theatre, in Dursley, Gloucestershire, England, which was formerly part of the social centre for the engineering firm R A Lister and Company, from which it takes its name. Dursley's Lister Hall is a full-size traditional theatre and dance-hall. Since its foundation in 1926 it has hosted numerous dramatic productions and been the hub of many social events in Dursley. It is the home of the Dursley Operatic and Dramatic Society, which celebrates its Diamond Jubilee in 2013, and of Dursley Male Voice Choir, which has a long-standing tradition of putting on choral concerts in Dursley. Other events at Lister Hall include rock concerts, Latino-style dance nights, social events, and wrestling.Lister Social Club is housed in the same building as the Lister Hall, which is now known as the Chantry Centre. The club became independent from the engineering firm ('Listers') after the company underwent a change of ownership, but its membership continued to thrive, with regular activities, including a skittles league. At the end of 2012 the club formally ceased to exist, but its social activities will continue under the auspices of the Chantry Centre. The Centre is managed by a board of Trustees and, at time of writing, has no formal public support or finance. There is a local commitment to keep the Lister Hall and Chantry Centre running, but there is a need for funds to update facilities, so the Trustees are happy to receive suggestions and offers of assistance. The Chantry Centre runs a Friends scheme, which enables individuals to support the centre in return for certain benefits.

Cam railway station served the village of Cam in Gloucestershire, England. The station was on the short Dursley and Midland Junction Railway line which linked the town of Dursley to the Midland Railway's Bristol to Gloucester line at Coaley Junction. The railway, just 2.5 miles (4 km) long, ran along the valley of the river Cam. Cam station was situated at northern end of the village, close to the cloth mill of Hunt and Winterbotham, to which there was a siding.The station opened with the line in 1856 and consisted of a single platform with a brick building and a wooden goods shed. It was the only intermediate station on the line and all passenger trains called there. Journeys between Coaley Junction railway station and Dursley took only 10 minutes and around half a dozen trains were provided each day, with excursion traffic in the summer. The trains that ran on the line were affectionately known as the "Dursley Donkey".Passenger traffic was vulnerable to competition from buses and services ceased on 10 September 1962. Goods services at Cam also finished then, but the line remained open to goods traffic from Dursley under British Rail regularly to 1966 and irregularly to 1968, and even after that the line was retained as a private siding, finally closing in 1970. Cam station was demolished and no trace now remains. Coaley Junction, where the Dursley line joined the main line, remained open for passenger traffic until 1965 when it was closed with the withdrawal of stopping train services between Bristol and Gloucester. However, local pressure for a station resulted in the opening of a new station close to Coaley in 1994, and this is known as Cam and Dursley.
