Sheringham station set to be brightened up with flowers

The old garden was lost when the platform was extended

Sheringham’s station adopter in Norfolk has big plans to brighten up the new station platform with flowers.

Sheila McGinley has worked with Greater Anglia, Sheringham’s local rail operator, to install three wooden planters, which she will fill with plants.

The planters also replace the old station garden, which was lost when the platform had to be extended to allow the new fleet of trains to stop at the station.

More than £1m was invested by Greater Anglia in the project, which saw improved LED lighting and a new passenger shelter installed at the station.

Greater Anglia’s Customer and Community Engagement Manager, Alan Neville, said, “I’m pleased that we have been able to work with Sheila to bring some attractive floral displays back to Sheringham station, to help provide a more welcoming environment to everyone who uses the station.”
