Hethersett was a railway station near Hethersett, Norfolk. Opened in 1845, it was located some distance from the village it took its name from. It was located on the Great Eastern Railway Main Line between Norwich and Thetford. It was served by between ten and twelve trains a day each way during the early sixties. In 1966, however, the station was deemed surplus to requirements and closed.[1] The station building in 2013 was still standing in very derelict condition.
