Bishopstone railway station

Bishopstone railway station is on the western side of the town of Seaford, East Sussex, England.

It is situated close to the coast, and about 1 mile (1.6 km) from the downland rural village of Bishopstone after which it is named.

That was closed in 1938 when the current station opened, but was subsequently reopened under the name of Bishopstone Beach Halt, and survived as such until 1942.

Bishopstone Station is a grade II listed building, which is on English Heritage's at-risk register.
