Summary[edit]

Description
English: Disused railway bridge over Cawston Road. The bridge takes the Marriotts Way long distance footpath over Cawston Road. See also > 1293258.

This section of the Marriotts Way long distance footpath once carried the East Norfolk Railway and was consequently run by the Great Eastern Railway and later forming part of the London and North Eastern Railway in 1923.

Aylsham once used to have two railway stations. Aylsham South was in operation from 1880 to 1981. It was opened by the East Norfolk Railway and consequently run by the Great Eastern Railway and forming part of the London and North Eastern Railway in 1923. In 1948 the station passed on to the Eastern Region of British Railways. The passenger service stopped in 1952 but the freight service continued until 1977. When it was taken over by the narrow-gauge Bure Valley Railway in 1990, the station - one of the most complete remaining Great Eastern stations in Norfolk -was demolished to make way for the headquarters of the Bure Valley Railway > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/761149 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/761162. Aylsham North railway station > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1290565 was operated by the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway line, linking the Midlands with the Norfolk Coast and finally closed (and demolished) in 1959.
