Fir Tree Road
c1930s housing in Fir Tree Road, although the road itself significantly predates any development, being shown on the 1871 1:10,000 map.

Fir Tree Road (B291)
Pretty typical of the many residential streets in this outer suburban area - though this links the A240 at Drift Bridge with Epsom Downs, and thus carries a certain amount of through traffic. The view is NNE from a point not many yards north of Mimosa Close (newly built, and not yet plotted by the OS at the time of writing).

Epsom Down station (4)
This shows the small car park provided south of the platform. With a much larger car park free of charge, and a better rail service, the station could attract park-and-ride from quite a large area.

Epsom Downs Station
A relatively modern stone clad building in keeping with the newly built housing around it. The station shares its building with the Railway Children Kindergarten.

Epsom Downs station (2)
This shows the single platform looking back in the London direction. The Epsom Downs line is self-contained in that there are no junctions between here and the platforms it uses at Sutton. So the line could be easily worked with trams.

Epsom Downs station (3)
This small building looks as if it might have been intended as a station house: in fact it has never been used as such, but is a kindergarten.

Epsom Downs station
The original Epsom Downs station (see Image) was situated several hundred yards west of this one, nearer to the racecourse which it was intended to serve, and had generous accommodation for the expected crowds of racegoers. But in 1989 the tracks were cut back about a quarter of a mile to this new single-platform station With the track now singled almost all the way back to Sutton, only an hourly service is provided. Race traffic has now entirely gone, and very few passengers use the station.

Epsom Downs Station
Originally opened in 1865. At one time, the station had nine platforms; now there is just one, with Tattenham Corner station being closer to the race course. The building, to the left of picture, is the original station building which has been extended and is now housing.
