Belford railway station was situated on the East Coast Main Line between the current Chathill and Berwick-upon-Tweed stations serving the village of Belford. It opened on 29 March 1847, closing on 29 January 1968. Today only the northbound station building remains.

After a 2010 plan to rebuild the station did not proceed, in 2015, Berwick City Council allocated £100,000 to investigate reopening the station.
