Lamb's Cottage was a short-lived, original railway station on the Liverpool and Manchester Railway to the southeast of Astley village in what was then the county of Lancashire, England. The station was 32 chains (0.64 km) east of what later became Astley station and in 2015 was Astley signal box and level crossing carrying Rindle Road.
