Heeley Station was a train station in Sheffield, South Yorkshire. The station served the communities of Heeley, Meersbrook and Lowfield and was situated on the Midland Main Line near London Road on Heeley Bridge, lying between Sheffield Midland station and Millhouses Station.

The station was opened at the same time as the main line from Chesterfield was opened and had four platforms although only two were in general use as there were two slow and two fast lines. Heeley station was unusual as it was an elevated station with subway access from below to the platforms. It closed in the 1960s at the same time as the other suburban stations on the line. The station building still exists and is used as a spare car parts shop, though no trace of the platforms remain.
