The original line crossing the road here was built in 1836 by Colonel Landmann, engineer of the London and Greenwich Railway. As one of the two surviving bridges from London's first railway line, the bridge is grade 2 listed and was refurbished in 2011. The plaque marks the station which sat on the viaduct above, for a short time in 1836. For context, see Image
