Former railway line running between Holbeach and Sutton Bridge. The line was initially proposed in 1853 as part of the Norwich and Spalding Railway, but was not actually constructed until 1862, after the Great Northern Railway took control of the route. The line was single track and was opened on the 1st July 1862. It notably formed part of the larger Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway line between Spalding and King's Lynn, after its formation in 1893. This part of the route was closed for passengers in March 1959, and to goods in April 1965. The track was dismantled soon after, although much of its former course can still be discerned as an earthwork. {1}{2}{3}
