Practical Considerations
If you are considering a 'real world' visit to Armathwaite Station and adjacent SCRCA locations, you might like to note the following:
- The tiny village of Armathwaite (located approximately half a mile from the station) and its ancient bridge over the River Eden are worth a quick visit (especially on a nice-weather day).
- The former Armathwaite Station Signal Box is now a museum. It is open to the public most Sundays (and on other days by prior arrangement). For further details, see:
