Rodmarton Platform was a railway station serving the village of Rodmarton on the Tetbury branch line between Cirencester and Tetbury in Gloucestershire. The station opened on 1 September 1904 and closed in April 1964[1] as a result of the Beeching Axe.

Rodmarton Platform was the first Great Western station to use the name "platform".[1][2] The term originally came from Scottish railway stations was used by Great Western to describe stations smaller than fully-fledged stations but longer than halts, and ones that offered services such as ticket sales, mail transport and some light goods.[1] The wooden platform carried a "Pagoda" shelter for passenger use.[3]

Rodmarton Platform was opened to serve the small village of Rodmarton, though the railway and station was sited some distance from the village.[4]
