Dewsbury Central was the Great Northern station serving Dewsbury in Yorkshire. It opened in 1874 and closed on 7 September 1964.[1]

The station had a single large island platform with a glass roof accessed from below through an entrance on Crackenedge Lane. This entrance survives as part of the embankment, which after the closure of the railway had the A638 built over it.[2]
