Dover Priory is also the larger of two stations in its local settlement.

Depends how you define larger - Worcester Foregate Street has fewer platforms than Shrub Hill but it posts higher passenger figures ;)

Filton Abbey Wood also has the name of an ecclesiastical edifice in its name.

Dumbarton Central is also a station on a double-track route which has 3 platforms, all of which are through platforms.

Shipley is served by a busy suburban route, and also a route through a remote part of the country with a somewhat sparse service.

Very true - didn't occur to me. I had intended physical size.

Liverpool South Parkway is another station split into two distinct operational halves, ignoring the presence of the Underground at London Victoria

Newport (Suth Wales) is also sometimes thought of as a white elephant.

This is of course due to the new footbridge structure.
