Simon Charlton (born October 25, 1971 in Huddersfield) is an English footballer, who last played for Norwich City. He is a left-back who can also play as a left-sided central defender or occasionally in midfield.

He made his name in the Premiership initially with Southampton and then with Bolton Wanderers F.C. and has also played for Huddersfield Town A.F.C..

At the end of the 2005/06 season Charlton was released by Norwich City and as at 17/05/06 has not yet signed for another club.
