A tree casting its shadow The low winter sunshine casts long shadows over the cultivated fields west of the A140 (Norwich Road). Until the 1960s the Waveney Valley Line used to traverse this field on its way from Pulham Market to Tivetshall St Mary. The Waveney Valley Line ran from a junction with the London to Norwich mainline at Tivetshall > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1572341 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1572337, servicing the market towns of Harleston,, Bungay and Beccles, where it connected with the East Suffolk line to Yarmouth. The line was opened between 1855 and 1863 but its first stations (Starston > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1592857 and Redenhall) were closed as early as 1866. The passenger service was eventually withdrawn in 1953. Freight services were but back in 1960 and in 1966 the line was closed. Part of its route - between Harleston and Broome - has since been taken over by the realigned A143 road.
