Brockley Station

Looking north at Brockley Station we see a profusion of overbridges. Nearest to the camera and painted green and white is a public footbridge, which can be used by anyone, as it is wholly outside the station barriers. Then comes the white-painted station bridge which is within the barriers, so use of this bridge is restricted to persons in possession of a railway ticket or pass. Next after this, with only its black-painted lower edge visible, is a bridge carrying the ex-LCD railway line, now between Nunhead and Lewisham. There was at one time a station, called Brockley Lane, on this line somewhat to the east, but it closed many years ago. After this is a road bridge a rusty red-brown with graffiti. A considerable distance beyond is another road bridge painted pale green. It carries Vista Road, but no motor traffic is allowed over it.
