Looking west along the track-bed alongside Dunham station house with its overgrown platforms, up side on the left.  The fence crosses the line and forms the boundary between two properties: beyond it lies the down platform waiting room in September 2017.

Dunham’s down platform opposite the station house.  A lamp post remains in place under the tree in September 2017. The brick building beyond the fence is a new build house.

The station house at Dunham seen from the approach in September 2017.  The render was a later addition.  The hedge divides the land, that in the foreground now part of the goods shed dwelling.

At Dunham the large goods shed is now a dwelling.  This is the view from the station approach in September 2017.  The attractive building style of brick corners and finely knapped flint infills was used at sites all along the Lynn & Dereham.  Flint is a durable material but not suitable for making corners.

Dunham’s goods shed in September 2017.  The handsome building has been attractively changed, showing off the construction techniques used. The large arched opening was where goods would be loaded or unloaded onto carts from the internal dock.

At Dunham the down side former waiting room has been restored and extended to make a dwelling.  There was no platform canopy in views dating from soon after the building’s construction by the GER as a later addition to the station.  September 2017.
