The original part of Lewisham station opened in 1849, on the North Kent Line which by-passed Greenwich because the Royal Observatory did not want their sensitive instruments disturbed by trains. This view looks along that original line towards Blackheath. A Networker train is just leaving on its way to Blackheath.
