St Philip's Marsh depot is a railway depot located in the St Philip's Marsh district of Bristol, England. It was established as a steam locomotive shed in 1910 but this facility closed in the 1960s. A new diesel facility opened nearby at Marsh Junction in 1959. This has since been combined with a new shed which was opened in 1976 to maintain new InterCity 125 trainsets.
