Description

Forncett railway station was a railway station in Forncett, South Norfolk located 104 miles from London Liverpool Street. It was opened in 1849 when Norwich and Ipswich were connected by the Eastern Union Railway in 1849.
Between 1881 and 1951 it was a junction for a short route to Wymondham and was closed as a result of the Beeching Axe with other smaller stations between Norwich and Ipswich.

The station consisted of two platforms with the up platform being 363 feet and the down platform 452 feet. The station building was situated on the up side with a wooden waiting shelter located on the down. The two platforms were linked by a footbridge provided in 1882.
A goods yard consisting of three sidings and a brick goods shed was located south of the station on the up side.
