Palmersville is a Tyne and Wear Metro station, serving the village of Holystone and suburb of Forest Hall, North Tyneside in Tyne and Wear, England. The station was opened in 1986 on the alignment of the former Blyth and Tyne Railway.

A Network Rail freight line shares the alignment at this point. This line is planned to become part of the Northumberland Line passenger service in the near future, but there are no plans for this service to stop at Palmersville.[2][3]
