Kettleness was a railway station on the Whitby Redcar and Middlesbrough Union Railway. It was opened on 3 December 1883, and served the remote village of Kettleness. It closed on 5 May 1958.
The station building is now known as 'Seeonee Lair' and is run as an activity centre by East Cleveland Scout District. Though the track bed has been lifted and the station canopy removed, the platforms remain.
