Margaret "Marg" Cutcliffe (born February 28, 1955 in Springhill, Nova Scotia) is a Canadian curler from Fall River, Nova Scotia.

Cutcliffe is a three-time provincial women's champion, winning the Nova Scotia Scotties Tournament of Hearts in 1985, 1987 and 2017. Her wins in 1985 and 1987 were playing third for Virginia Jackson and in 2017, she played third for Mary Mattatall. These three wins earned those teams the right to represent Nova Scotia at their respective national championships, the Scotties Tournament of Hearts. At the 1985 Scott Tournament of Hearts, the Jackson-led Nova Scotia rink finished the round robin with an 8-3 record, only to lose in the semifinal. At the 1987 Scott Tournament of Hearts, the team was less successful, finishing with a 3-8 record, in 11th place.

In mixed curling, Cutcliffe has won three provincial mixed titles, in 1986, 1990 and 2004 playing third for Don Lowdon, Dave Jones and lead for Steve Ogden, respectively. These teams would represent Nova Scotia at the Canadian Mixed Curling Championship those years. She finished 6-5 (lost in tie breaker) in 1986, 7-4 (lost in tie beaker) in 1990 and 6-5 at the 2004 Canadian Mixed Curling Championship.

After she turned 50, Cutcliffe became eligible for seniors curling. She has won three provincial senior titles, in 2006 and 2007 (playing third for Penny LaRocque) and in 2017 for Mattatall. At the 2006 Canadian Senior Curling Championships, her team went 8-3, losing in the semi-final, while at the 2007 Canadian Senior Curling Championships, her team went 8-3, losing in a tie-breaker.

Upon turning 60, Cutcliffe became eligible for masters curling. She skipped the Nova Scotia team at the 2016 Canadian Masters Curling Championships, leading her province all the way to the final, where she lost to Saskatchewan's Merle Kopach rink.

On the World Curling Tour, Cutcliffe has won one event as a member of the Mattatall rink, the 2015 Lady Monctonian Invitational Spiel.[1]
