Opened in 1882 by the Didcot Newbury & Southampton Railway, later part of the Great Western Railway, this station closed to passengers in 1962 and completely in 1964. Former forecourt looking south. The buildings on the left stand on the site of the station, the platforms being on an embankment which has now mostly been removed. The village is now called 'Hampstead Norreys' but the station name was never spelled this way.
