From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wivenhoe railway station is on the Tendring Hundred Railway (referred to informally as the Clacton line) and serves the village of Wivenhoe in Essex, England. It is operated by 'one'. The station has two platforms and a footbridge, and a manned ticket office and waiting room. It is only a short walk from the station to the River Colne at Wivenhoe quay, and the station car park is also the starting point of the Wivenhoe Trail, a cycle track that runs alongside the river into Colchester (about 4 miles).
A few hundred metres east of the station there was a junction for the single-track branch line to Brightlingsea. This branch is now closed, the tracks lifted and the bridge over Alresford Creek demolished.
