Rose Hill Marple is one of two railway stations that serve Marple in the Metropolitan Borough of Stockport, England; the other is Marple railway station. The station, which opened in 1869, is the last surviving stop on the former Macclesfield, Bollington and Marple Railway (MB&MR). It is connected via a short branch to the Hope Valley Line. The original line to Macclesfield was closed in January 1970, leaving Rose Hill Marple as the terminus of the route; the Middlewood Way, a shared-use path, now follows the preserved route of the disused MB&MR.
