Titley Junction railway station was a station in Titley, Herefordshire, England. The station was located nearly two miles south of Titley village.

The station was opened in 1856 and closed completely in 1964.[1] Immediately to the east of the station, the line split for trains traveling south to Eardisley (at least until 1940, when that portion of the line closed) and north-west to Presteigne, Wales. Since closure the station has been restored with track reinstated as a short private railway.
