Keinton Mandeville railway station was a small railway station situated on the Great Western Railway's Langport and Castle Cary Railway. It was located is in the village of Lydford-on-Fosse but was named the larger neighbouring village of Keinton Mandeville in Somerset, England.

The station opened on 1 July 1905, at the same time as Charlton Mackrell and the two stations were operated as a temporary branch from Castle Cary before the railway opened throughout as a whole the following year.

The station had two platforms and a building, as well as a small goods yard behind the east platform.

No sign of the station now remains, the site is now a scrap yard. The line is still in use as part of the Reading–Taunton line.
