This article is about the former mainline railway station. For the adjacent station taking passengers from 1872 to 1916, see Bishopsgate (Low Level) railway station. For the Underground station formerly called Bishopsgate, see Liverpool Street station § Underground station.
Bishopsgate was a railway station located on the eastern side of Shoreditch High Street in the parish of Bethnal Green (now within the London Borough of Tower Hamlets) on the western edge of the East End of London and just outside the City of London.
It was in use from 1840 to 1875 as a passenger station and then as a freight terminal until it was destroyed by fire in 1964. Substantial remains lay derelict until they were demolished in the early 2000s to make way for Shoreditch High Street railway station which now stands on part of the site.
