TM2885 : Former Homersfield goods shed and station site
taken 17 years ago, near to Homersfield, Suffolk, England
Former Homersfield goods shed and station site
On the former Waveney valley railway running from Beccles to Tivetshall. Homersfield station served a largely agricultural area, although its importance in WW2 was increased with a large 1 mile siding nearby. It was used for bomb transportation to nearby airfields like Flixton.
The station was demolished when most of the route from Dichingham to Harleston was turned into a road, the goods shed survives as a reminder that at this quaint rural branch, famous engines like the surviving J15 at the North Norfolk railway used to regularly work. The goods shed is now a garage.
