NHER 62383 (Monument record) - Site of Norwich City Railway Station

Norwich City station: Built in 1882 by Wilkinson and Jarvis on a 30 acre site. The line was used for goods and passengers. The station was hit in the 1942 Blitz and several buildings were destroyed. Services continued however in the open until 1944 when pre-fabricated concrete buildings were installed. The last passenger train left in 1959 but the station ran goods up until 1969.
