Offord and Buckden railway station was built by the Great Northern Railway to serve the twin villages of Offord Cluny and Offord D'Arcy in Cambridgeshire, England.

History

The Great Northern Railway main line from London to Peterborough had opened in 1850 including stations at St. Neots and Huntingdon. A station between these, named Offord, was opened just over a year later, in September 1851. It was located 56 miles (90 km) from London King's Cross.

On 1 August 1876 the station was renamed Offord and Buckden.

The station closed on 2 February 1959.
