Battlesbridge railway station is on the Crouch Valley Line in the East of England, serving the village of Battlesbridge, Essex. It is {{convert|31|mi|40|chain|km|lk=in}} down the line from London Liverpool Street and is situated between {{rws|Wickford}} to the west and {{rws|South Woodham Ferrers}} to the east. The Engineer's Line Reference for the line is WIS; the station's three-letter station code is BLB. The platform has an operational length for four-coach trains.

The line and station were opened on 1 June 1889 for goods and on 1 October 1889 for passenger services by the Great Eastern Railway.^[1] The station had a single platform with a station building, a goods shed, a goods yard including cattle pens, and a 34-lever signal box. The freight service was withdrawn on 4 October 1965; the goods loop and signal box were closed on 7 December 1966. All the station buildings were demolished in 1968.^[1] Electrification of the Wickford to Southminster line using 25 kV overhead line electrification (OLE) was completed on 12 May 1986.

Battlesbridge station is currently managed by Greater Anglia, which also operates all trains serving it. The typical off-peak service is of one westbound train every 40 minutes to {{rws|Wickford}} and one eastbound train every 40 minutes to {{rws|Southminster}}, with additional services at peak times. Some peak services continue to or from {{rws|Shenfield}} and/or London Liverpool Street via the Great Eastern Main Line.
