Lockwood railway station is arailway station inHuddersfield,England. It is situated 1.5 miles (2 km) south ofHuddersfield station on thePenistone Line between Huddersfield andSheffield. It serves theLockwood district of Huddersfield, and services are provided byNorthern.

The station comprises a singleside platform alongside the single-line of the railway, although the remains of a second platform alongside the site of the former second track (removed in 1989) are still visible.

To the south of the station, the line to Sheffield passes over the valley of theRiver Holme by an impressive 476 yards (435 m) long stoneviaduct toBerry Brow. Below the 122 feet (37 m) high structure is the Huddersfield Rugby Union Club ground at Lockwood Park, which was formerly a Bass Brewery. The formerMeltham branch line branched off the main line just before the viaduct. This line closed to passengers in 1949 and to freight in 1965. To the north, the route passes through a short tunnel then crosses another large viaduct across theRiver Colne before joining the main line at Springwood Junction.
