Ardingly was a railway station which served the West Sussex village of the same name in England. It was opened on 3 September 1883 by the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway (LBSCR). It was closed eighty years later and is currently used as an aggregates depot. The Bluebell Railway owns the trackbed from just east of the station to Horsted Keynes and has long-term plans to rebuild the line.
