Horsmonden is a closed railway station on the closed Hawkhurst Branch. The station was equipped with a single 300ft platform on the up side, together with a loop serving a fruit packing warehouse. To the rear of the station are the stationmaster's house, a three-storey building with dormer windows, and a goods yard. The village of Horsmonden lies a short distance to the west of the station.

The station is now used as a garage called "Old Station Garage" and the stationmaster's house is a private residence.
