The Brighton, Lewes & Hastings Railway existed from February 1844 but only operated trains for a few weeks during June and July 1846 before it was amalgamated with other companies to form the London Brighton & South Coast Railway on 27th July 1846. Pevensey & Westham station opened as Westham & Pevensey on the same day as the rest of the line (27th July 1846) between Lewes and St.Leonards (Bulverhythe). It was renamed Pevensey & Westham in January 1851 but in November 1851 was renamed Pevensey until January 1890 when it received its present name. This view from the footbridge looks towards Eastbourne. The next station in this direction is Hampden Park.
