Wells On Sea Railway Station
A front view of the station, now a book store and pottery. This is the only part to survive.
The station was the northern terminus for the branch from Wymondham and also the terminus of the Hunstanton to Wells Branch. A small branch also left for the harbour, curving to the west of the town. The line to Hunstanton via Holkham and Burnham Market closed after damage from the 1953 floods. Several bridges and embankments still survive in the area. The Whole section from Fakenham to here closed under Dr Beeching in 1964. The area of the platforms and engine shed is now an industrial estate.
