Opened in 2015 by Network Rail on the line from London Victoria to Faversham, this station replaced an earlier station some 500m behind the camera position. View north west towards Strood and London. At one time, Strood and Rochester had five stations between them on two competing tracks. This station is adjacent to the site of the one called Rochester Common (1891-1911), which is now covered by a multi-storey car park just beyond the platform buildings in the distance.
