Built in the 1980s on the site of the first Lewes railway station opened in 1846. Awkward turning meant that by 1857 this station was closed and a newer one built to the south. The building and the track survived as a goods yard until the 1960s when the tracks were dismantled and the station demolished in 1967. Prior to the arrival of the station the site had once been occupied by a Franciscan Friary.
