Hellesdon railway station is a former railway station in Norfolk, England. It was closed to passengers more than fifty years ago. It served the area of Hellesdon, today virtually an outer suburb of Norwich. It first opened in 1882 and was closed in 1953, six years before the rest of the line.

Parts of the platform walls still survive today on both sides of the tracks, however the station itself has long since been demolished. The area is extremely overgrown. An entrance gate next to the bridge spanning the River Wensum still exists too.
