Hurstbourne railway station served the village of Hurstbourne Priors in Hampshire, England. It was on the London and South Western Railway's West of England Main Line and was also the junction for the Fullerton to Hurstbourne Line. Trains for the Fullerton line started and stopped at Whitchurch, the next station to the east on the main line.

Passenger services were withdrawn on the Fullerton to Hurstbourne line in 1931, but Hurstbourne remained open for stopping services between Basingstoke and Andover until it closed in 1964.^[1][2] The site used to be occupied by a scrap metal dealer, but is now a new housing estate.^{[3][better source needed][when?]}
