Radcliffe Bridge railway station was a Railway Station in Radcliffe built on the East Lancashire Railway line, between Bury and Clifton, both in Greater Manchester. It was opened by the ELR on 25 September 1846, and was closed 5 July 1958.

No trace of the station now remains due to the construction of the A665 Pilkington Way, which cuts through the line of the railway. An image of the station may be found in "An Illustrated Historical Survey of the Railways in and around Bury by Jeffrey Wells, ISBN 1-899624-29-5".
