Ropley railway station

Ropley railway station is a railway station in Ropley, Hampshire, England, which opened on 2 October 1865. It is an intermediate station on the preserved Mid-Hants "Watercress" Line, which runs from Alton to New Alresford.

The main locomotive shed and workshops for the Watercress Railway are located just to the east of Ropley station.

The station gardens feature notable yew topiary, which has been in situ for over 100 years. ( An 1898 postcard shows the topiary well established)

A footbridge was added to the western end of the station in 1986. This was recovered from the closed station at North Tawton in Devon in August 1983, restored and installed by volunteers.
