Proposed new path to Castle Cary Station

Proposed new path to Castle Cary Station

Various recent developments have increased the number of walkers travelling between Castle Cary Railway Station and Alhampton. These include:

  • Improvements to rail services from Castle Cary meaning that more residents of Alhampton, Sutton and Ditcheat are walking to the station.
  • The opening of The Creamery at the station attracting local diners from local villages including those listed above.
  • The success of the Community Pub at the Alhampton Inn attracting people from Ansford and Castle Cary who walk via the Station.
  • The new Haddon Wood between Alhampton and the Station which provides superb walks with vistas, ponds and a wildlife haven. This again is attracting walkers from Ansford and Castle Cary through the station.
