Godstone railway station is on the Redhill to Tonbridge Line and serves Godstone in Surrey, England. It is located approximately two miles south of the village centre, at South Godstone, a settlement which was non-existent until the coming of the railway.

The station was destaffed in 1967 following which the original station buildings were demolished and replaced with small shelters.

In 1993 the line was electrified and services started to run through to London rather than being an extenison of the Reading to Tonbridge North Downs Line service.

In 2007, a PERTIS machine was installed at the street entrance to the Tonbridge-bound platform. The station was until December 2008 operated by Southeastern before it transferred to Southern, whose green signage was installed before October 2008.

Services

The typical off peak service is one train per hour east to Tonbridge railway station, and west to London Charing Cross via Redhill and East Croydon.
