Opened in 1846 by the London & Brighton Railway, soon to become part of the London Brighton & South Coast Railway, on the line from Lewes to Hastings, this station closed in 1881. It was replaced by one 300m behind the camera position. However, history came full circle when this station was rebuilt and reopened in 1986. View west towards Berwick and Lewes.
