Whissendine Level Crossing

Highlight • Structure

Quaint level crossing in between Whissendine and Wymondham. There is a small gate you can use yourself to cross or sometimes the nice man opens the gates for you!

Lovely converted barn with a lovely garden and kids play area. Food is very good and reasonably priced. Good choice of ice creams. Can get busy on weekends especially in the summer, but still highly recommended.
