Calne railway station was opened on 3 November 1863 by the Great Western Railway as a terminus for their 5 miles (8.0 km) Chippenham and Calne branch line from the Great Western Main Line at Chippenham, England. It was a short distance from Calne town centre and had one platform. The station, when first opened, had its own engine shed. In the early years, the seven sidings were usually full due to the amount of traffic arriving from the nearby Chippenham station. Following closure in 1965 as part of the nationwide Beeching Axe, the buildings were left to be vandalised but were eventually taken down. A few years later the Station Road Industrial Estate was built on the site, which in turn was replaced by a housing development in 2014.

Stock is a small settlement and former ecclesiastical parish, now part of Calne Without civil parish, in the ceremonial county of Wiltshire, England. It lies about 1 mile (1.6 km) south of the town of Calne. Samuel Lewis said in A Topographical Dictionary of England (1848): STOCK, a tything, in the parish, union, and hundred of Calne, Chippenham and Calne, and N. divisions of Wilts; containing 328 inhabitants. It is situated on a tributary of the river Avon, and to the south of the road leading from Droitwich to Alcester. Stock was part of the Calne hundred, and its history is included in the parish history of Calne in the Wiltshire Victoria County History's Volume XVII (2002). Although Stock had open fields and common pastures, it did not have a nuclear settlement. Before the Norman Conquest of England and still in 1086 the land at Stock was almost certainly part of the royal estate of Calne. Land at Stockley lies to the south, and the boundary between Stock and Stockley is uncertain. Land at Stock had been granted away from Calne by 1144, although the area it then covered is unknown. Some of it was probably granted to Fulk de Cauntelo about 1199, and from 1763 on Stock was inherited with the manors of Calne and Calstone as part of the Bowood House estate. In 1728 Stock was divided between Hollow Ditch farm (now called Holly Ditch) and a farm now gone, with buildings near Quobbs Farm, on the west side of the road from Devizes to Calne (now the A3102). As part of the Bowood estate, the land of those two farms, and other land at Stock, totalling about 350 acres, was inherited by Charles Petty-Fitzmaurice, 9th Marquess of Lansdowne, in 1999.The Ordnance Survey map surveyed in 1884 shows a roadside hamlet named Stock Street near Stock Street Farm, and another named Mile Elm, further south along the road and near a farm of the same name which lies between Quobbs and Holly Ditch. Modern maps show only Mile Elm.

Mile Elm is a hamlet in central Wiltshire, England, with a population of around 40 residents. It lies on the A3102 road, 1.5 miles (2.4 km) south-west of the town of Calne. There was a farm at Mile End in 1728; the area to the east of the road was the tithing of Stock. The hamlet is within the civil parish of Calne Without. Wiltshire Council is the unitary authority which is responsible for all significant local government functions. Mile Elm backs onto part of the Marquess of Lansdowne's Bowood Estate. Larger nearby villages include Heddington, Bromham and Sandy Lane.
