Cooksbridge railway station serves the village of Cooksbridge in East Sussex. It is on the East Coastway Line; train services are provided by Southern.

The station is unstaffed. A PERTIS ticket machine was installed in 2008 on both the London-bound and the Lewes-bound platform.

History

Cooksbridge lies on the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway "cut-off" line between Keymer Junction, near Wivelsfield on the Brighton Main Line, and Lewes. The erstwhile Brighton, Lewes and Hastings Railway were authorised to build the line in 1845; the LBSCR purchased it and opened the link on 1 October 1847. Cooksbridge station was opened four years later.

Services

The station has a limited service: there are 11 southbound towards Eastbourne and 12 northbound trains towards London Victoria per weekday, with none on Saturdays or Sundays.
