Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: 1848 Railway Station Newmarkets first station was the terminus of the Newmarket & Chesterford Railway. It was built on this site in 1848, and consisted of a single platform to the west of the current line. This continued in use when the Warren Hill tunnel was built, and the line to Bury St Edmunds was opened in 1854. When the Ely line was opened in 1879 a new through platform was opened, joined by a footbridge.
A new station was built approximately half a mile south in 1902, and the original one was used for goods traffic, it closed in 1967, and was demolished c.1985, the site was used for housing. The photo was taken from above the tunnel entrance, looking south towards the current station. The terminus stood to the right, now submerged in houses. |
