The original station here was called Hassocks Gate when it opened in 1841, the name apparently taken from a tollgate on the road to Brighton rather than any actual settlement. It has been rebuilt several times since then, most recently between 2012 and 2013 when the lift seen in this view was installed. The main building is on the other (up) side of the line.
