Biddenden was a railway station on the Kent and East Sussex Railway which closed in January 1954.
As of 2014 the station building has been converted to a private house ("The Old Station") with parts of the platforms still clearly visible. The station is sited on the northern edge of the village on the A274 North Street/Headcorn Road.
