Wadhurst railway station is on the Hastings line in the south of England and serves the town of Wadhurst, East Sussex. It is 39 miles 23 chains (63.2 km) down the line from London Charing Cross. The station and all trains serving it are operated by Southeastern.
Designed by the architect William Tress, the station was opened in 1851 by the South Eastern Railway. Originally there were sidings and a goods shed, but these have been replaced with a car park.
Unusually, the station features a private entrance to nearby Faircrouch, a large Grade II listed house around 220 yards from the westbound platform.
In 2000 the station buildings and footbridge were given Grade II listed status.[1]
