Bluestone railway station


Bluestone railway station served the villages of Heydon and Oulton, in Norfolk, England. It was a stop on the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway.

History

The station opened in the late 19th century to serve the surrounding farms and settlements. It lay just within Heydon's civil parish. RAF Oulton, a now-disused airfield, was constructed in 1939-40 between the village of Oulton and the site of the station.
It was closed in 1916, owing to low passenger numbers.

The site today

The stationmaster's house remains in situ, with Weavers' Way footpath now occupying the trackbed.
