Raglan Footpath was a station on the former Coleford, Monmouth, Usk and Pontypool Railway. It was opened in October 1857 with the rest of the line and located 6 miles and 43 chains from Monmouth Troy. It was intended to serve the village of Raglan, Monmouthshire. It was closed in 1876 along with Raglan Road and replaced by a single station simply called 'Raglan'. The station had a small station house.[1]
