Castleford Town F.C. was an English football club based in Castleford, West Yorkshire.
The team participated in the FA Cup for the first time in 1907–08, but were defeated by Worksop Town in the fourth qualifying round. In 1909 they joined the Midland League. In 1919–20 they reached the second round of the FA Cup, where they lost 3–2 to Bradford (Park Avenue). When the Football League created the Third Division North in 1921 Castleford applied to join. Fourteen clubs were admitted without a vote, whilst another fourteen (including Castleford) faced a ballot for the four remaining places. Castleford received 18 votes, finishing fifth and failing in their attempt. The club did not apply again.
In 1927 they switched to the Yorkshire League, and finished as runners-up in their first season in the league. After finishing third in their second season in the league, they left at the end of their third. In 1934 they rejoined the league, but left again after two seasons.
