East Budleigh railway station is a closed railway station that served the villages of East Budleigh and Otterton in Devon, England. It was opened in 1897 on the Budleigh Salterton Railway, but was closed to passengers in 1967 due to the Beeching Axe.
The station was originally opened as Budleigh on the Budleigh Salterton Railway, which departed from the Sidmouth Railway at Tipton St Johns. The station was renamed as East Budleigh in 1898.
Passenger and freight services were withdrawn in the late sixties, with complete closure in 1967.[1]
The station building and platform survive as private accomdation, with a few alterations.
