Opened in 1865 by the London Brighton & South Coast Railway as the terminus of the line from Sutton, this station closed in 1989 when the line was truncated by 300m and a new station opened behind the camera position. View south west towards the former buffers, probably from a similar position to Image] some 36 years earlier.
