Opened in 1864 by the Mid Kent Railway on the line from Lewisham to Elmers End, this station only lasted until 1866. It was situated just beyond the junction, before the bridge. When the junction to the left was created (to Beckenham Junction), the station was eventually moved north to its present position.
