Hadham railway station served the village of Much Hadham, Hertfordshire, England, from 1863 to 1965 on the Buntingford branch line.

History[edit]

The station was opened on 3 July 1863 by the Great Eastern Railway. It was situated at the end of Station Road. On the up platform were the station buildings which incorporated a toilet and a waiting room. To the north of this platform was a signal box which controlled a loop and the goods yard. The station closed to passengers on 16 November 1964^[1] and closed to goods on 20 September 1965. The station buildings and the station house were wrecked by vandals a few years after closure. They were eventually demolished after the parish council requested it.^[2]
