Winchfield railway station

Winchfield railway station is located in the small village of Winchfield and also serves Hartley Wintney and surrounding villages and towns such as Odiham and Whitehall in Hampshire, England.

It is 39 miles 66 chains (64.1 km) down the main line from London Waterloo[note 1] and is situated between Fleet and Hook.

The railway arrived from Woking on 24 September 1838, and Winchfield station was opened as Shapley Heath as a temporary terminus.

[1][2] On 10 June the following year, the line was completed to Basingstoke and Shapley Heath became a through station.

It was soon renamed as Winchfield after the village; the precise date of this is unknown, but it had occurred by November 1840.
