Bridges over Station Road

Image: © Ian Capper Taken: 6 Aug 2019

Railway bridges over Station Road, by the exit from Mole Business Park, south of Leatherhead Station. Just visible in the background is that carrying the line to Dorking, and in front of it is that carrying the line to Effingham Junction and Guildford. The latter route dates from 1927 when following the grouping in 1923 the former L&SWR station was closed with all trains using the former LB&SCR station instead. This required a new spur to be built for the Guildford line including the bridge; the wall on the right in this photo is part of the abutment for the bridge on the original route.
