Opened in 1866 as 'Loughborough Park' by the London Brighton & South Coast Railway on the line from Brixton to Denmark Hill, this station received its last name in 1894. It closed in 1976. View north east on Barrington Road at the former entrance. The wooden platforms used to overhang the side of the viaduct and were demolished soon after closure.
