Not to be confused with Great Bentley (Essex) railway station.

Bentley railway station, also known as Bentley Junction, was located in Bentley, Suffolk on the Great Eastern Main Line. It closed in 1966.

The site of the station is still clearly identifiable at the Station Road level crossing, and the former station building is now a private dwelling.

Just to the North of the station was the branch line to Hadleigh.
