View eastward on B1354 Briston Road. The important key Station and Works of the former Midland & Great Northern Joint Railway had been just off to the right. However, as early as 2/3/59 almost all of the M&GN system had been closed, although the line from Sheringham survived for passengers until 6/4/64, for goods until 28/12/64. Virtually no trace remains of the latter-day Railways at Melton Constable in modern times.
