Sutton-on-Sea railway station was a station in Sutton-on-Sea, Lincolnshire. It opened on 4 October 1886 and was a temporary terminus of a branch line from Willoughby. Two years later the line was extended to Mablethorpe. It closed in 1970[1] and the track was removed a few years after closure.[2] The site is now lost under housing and a road alignment.
