Autumn Issue of WDTL

The new WDTL is at the station.  If you can't get there to pick up a copy, please view it on our separate page.

Summer Artwork on Wivenhoe Station

In the 3 poster cabinets on Platform 2, and in the Booking Hall cabinets, we exhibit art in various kinds of media, produced by local artists, both amateur and professional. The exhibits are usually viewed from Platform 1 across the railway tracks, to cheer up the morning commuters and delight/challenge/inspire travelers awaiting their trains. 

Artwork by Maggie Bernstein

There is also a bookshelf containing free books for you to borrow on your journey. Why not bring us some new ones in exchange, when you next visit the station. 

We have a winner!

The Children's Poetry competition has been judged by local poet, Alex Toms, and the winning poem chosen.  Well done to Lewis H for his poem: 'Holiday to the moon'.  Lewis is a pupil at Elmstead Primary School.  Runners up included children from Broomgrove Junior School, Elmstead and Fingeringhoe.  For more about the judge and her winning selection please see our WDTL page on this blog.
