Mundesley on Sea

Mundesley on Sea station and yard lay immediately to the south of Links Road in the town, but 12 years after closure, the site had been claimed by housing. This is the view north from Links Road on 2nd May 1976 showing how the track once continued beyond the station towards Trimingham and Overstrand. The lonely building on the horizon was built as a hotel for all the wealthy Victorian and Edwardian holidaymakers that were confidently expected to flock to Mundesley by rail as they had to Cromer. Unfortunately for the ambitions of the railway companies and promoters, the well heeled were not so inclined.
