Oaksey Halt is a closed station on the Golden Valley Line south of Kemble railway station and Kemble Tunnel on the line to Swindon.
There were short (150 ft) stone platforms, each with a small corrugated iron shelter.[1] After the halt was closed in 1964,[2] the platform on the up London Paddington line remained until October 2013 when it was dismantled as part of the Swindon to Kemble redoubling works.
