Opened in 1872 by the London Chatham & Dover Railway on its branch from Peckham Rye to Greenwich Park, this station closed in 1925. It was replaced by a new station on the west side of Gibbon Road. View west towards the later station and Peckham Rye. The 1872 station had one platform to the left of where the fence now is and one to the right, behind the shrubbery. The current railway layout is entirely to the right of the fence.
