Opened in 1855 as the terminus of a line from Three Bridges, on what became the London Brighton and South Coast Railway. The station was used by passengers only until 1866 when a second station was opened to the right of this image, on a line at a lower level (to fit under a bridge on London Road) when the line was extended to Tunbridge Wells. View west towards Rowfant and Three Bridges.
