Leave the A11 at the B1172 junction signed towards Wymondham, and head towards the town centre. When you arrive at the traffic lights, turn right and then immediately left. Go through the marketplace and then look for the war memorial on your left, after which you turn left into Vicar Street. Wymondham Abbey Station is on the right after about a quarter of a mile, shortly after you cross the river.
Keep on the A11 until you are almost past Wymondham. When you arrive at the B1172 junction, signed towards Wymondham and Dereham, leave the A11 and head towards the town centre. Carry on until you arrive at some traffic lights. Turn right at the lights and then immediately left, following the signs for the town centre. Go through the marketplace and then look for the war memorial on your left, after which you turn left into Vicar Street. Wymondham Abbey Station is on the right after about a quarter of a mile, shortly after you cross the river.
As you leave the town centre, the station car park is on your right after crossing the river. However, parking at Wymondham Abbey is severely restricted. We recommend that you park in the town and walk to the station.
Wymondham is well-served by an hourly service between Norwich and Cambridge operated by National Express, as well as East Midlands Trains services to the midlands.
We do not yet have a station in the immediate neighbourhood of Wymondham Station, so the best option is a pleasant twenty-minute walk to Wymondham Abbey Station. Leave the Network Rail station and turn left. Carry on past the cemetery until you arrive at the end of the road. Cross the main road, and head right and then immediately left again into a housing estate. Fork right at the mini-roundabout. Just before the river is a footpath. Follow the footpath towards the unmistakable towers of the abbey. Turn left at the end of the path, and the station is on your right.
Buses to Wymondham numbered X3 and X4 run every half hour Monday - Saturday, stopping near the traffic lights on the B1172. From there, follow the signs through the town centre to the war memorial. Turn left into Vicar Street, and Wymondham Abbey Station is on the right after about a quarter of a mile.
Bus number 14 runs approximately every 15 minutes Monday - Saturday, and hourly in the evenings and on Sunday. The bus will drop you off in Wymondham market place, from where you can follow the signs past the abbey to the station.
