Poetry Platform at the Railway

Let's go to the Poetry Night at the Railway!

**https://railwayinn.pub/shows/poetry-platform/2026-04-07**

Accepting spoken word and prose of all kinds we invite everyone from experienced wordsmiths to first time scribes and audience of all kinds along to an evening of lexicon, literature and language with several surprises along the way.

We'll meet in the bar area at around 7.30pm for an 8pm start. This event takes place upstairs in 'Platform 2'. See below for travel and accessibility information.

🔹🔹🔹🔹
Travelling to the Venue:

• By car - There is often free on-road parking on the surrounding streets after 6pm (but I would advise double-checking the signs). Alternatively, paid parking is available at the train station car park, just a 2-minute walk from the venue.
• By train - The venue is a short 2-minute walk from the train station.

Accessibility:

• For wheelchair users, mobile ramps are available to access both venues (Platform 1 and Platform 2). Unfortunately, none of the toilets are wheelchair accessible. The nearest accessible toilets are at the train station.

• For those with sensory needs, Platform 1 can be very loud (earplugs can be requested from the bar), whereas Platform 2 is generally quieter. The bar area can get very busy and noisy at peak times, especially during gigs. The outside terrace area may provide some relief if you need a break.

• Events at Platform 1 are usually freestanding (though seating can be requested from the bar), whereas events at Platform 2 are always seated.
