Worxham Miniature Worlds History

About 

What you can see at Wroxham Miniature Worlds has been in development since early 2011 and has taken a small team over three years of hard work to bring to you.  The Wroxham Miniature Worlds attraction is spread over nearly 15,000 square feet that’s almost 1/3 of an acre of undercover attraction!  The first 12 months was spent developing the model prototypes, detailed business plans and the inevitable planning applications that would be required to get the project off the ground.  It wasn’t just raising the money or getting the planning permission, building the models would consume more model railway products than any other single project ever in the UK!

It was a nervous moment when six months into the project the planning application was submitted to North Norfolk District Council being such a large scale attraction right on the boundary of the Broads National Park.  We had an idea, a proposal but it all hung on how the idea would be received by both the planning department and the local residents.  Just before Christmas 2011 the project was given the “green light” by the council having received no objections whatsoever.  We began building the full scale prototype layouts in February 2012 in what was essentially on open 5,000 sqft building developing what would be the largest model railway layouts on permanent public display.  The build time was estimated to be approximately 18 months, which would mean opening in time for the August Summer holidays in 2013.  A tentative date was set for April/May 2013 opening but we knew we had a long way to go and no idea how we would shave the three months from the build schedule.  Read More…
