Road Closures to Railway Lakes

Part of the B1135 (Wymondham to Dereham Road) is closed.  Don't follow the yellow signs - the diversion is ridiculously long! 

There is a road closed sign on the B1135 on the corner at the end of Dark Lane.  There is access past this so pass the Road Closed sign and go to the Railway Bridge at Hardingham

Turn left at the Railway Bridge onto Middle Road - continue straight over crossroad onto Church Road.  You will get to a Give Way sign on another crossroad and turn right - signposted Garvestone.  This will take you past Norfolk Golf Club and to a T-Junction.  Turn right and then Station Lane is just on the left. 

I have some maps at the shop - it will add an extra 5 mins onto your journey.  Anglers coming from Dereham are not affected.
