Mortimer railway station is a railway station in the village of Stratfield Mortimer in the county of Berkshire in England. The station is served by local services operated by First Great Western from Reading to Basingstoke.
The brick built station has a ticket office and waiting room (now closed) on the North (Reading bound) side of the double track. There is a foot bridge over to the South side with a very small brick shelter. Designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel it was used as the model for a station sold by Tri-ang_Railways trains.
[edit] Trivia
The station appears briefly in the 1974 Doctor Who serial Planet of the Spiders.
