Lullingstone railway station is an unopened stop on the Maidstone line. The station, which was built in the 1930s, was constructed to serve the proposed Lullingstone Airfield and an expected residential development at Lullingstone near Eynsford in Kent. It never opened to passengers because of the outbreak World War II in 1939 and the post-war Town and Country Planning Act 1947 putting an end to urbanisation of the area.
The station buildings were demolished in 1955, although the access road and foundations remain visible.
