Ashton Club Ground was a cricket ground in Ashton-under-Lyne, Lancashire. The first recorded match on the ground was in 1863, when Ashton-under-Lyne played All-England Eleven.

In 1865, the ground acted as a neutral venue when it held its only first-class match between Cambridgeshire and Yorkshire, with the match ending in a draw.

The final recorded match on the ground came in 1943 when G. Duckworth's XI played R. Howard's XI. Cricket is no longer played at the site of the ground today.
