Romsey Signalbox & Abbey Visit

We bring you news of a RCTS Chichester Branch visit to Romsey on Thursday 25 June, to which you are very welcome to join.

In the morning at 10:30, The Friends of Romsey Signal Box have agreed to open their site especially for our group from RCTS. This will be a hosted two hour guided tour of the various items on display including of course the working signal box that once stood on the junction to the east of Romsey station. Further details about this attraction can be found at: https://romseysignalbox.org.uk

Ample time will be available for lunch and a leisurely look around, there are numerous eating establishments in Romsey Town Centre. In the afternoon The Abbey has agreed to a guided one hour tour at 14:30 for our RCTS group.
Further details about the Abbey can be found at:

Numbers are limited and booking in advance essential. We will accept a booking by cash payment at our meeting at the Bassil Shippam Centre on Wednesday 22 April at 19:15 when Bill Gage will be presenting ‘Rails to Midhurst’. Alternatively you can pay by bank transfer to:

Note parking is widely available in Romsey, but very limited at the Romsey Signalbox attraction, which is barely 5 minutes walk from the station. The Town centre can be reached comfortably in 15 minutes from the Signalbox and the Abbey is literally a couple of minutes from the main shopping and food outlets area.

Participants make their own travel arrangements.
