The old Crystal Palace High Level line
The London, Chatham & Dover Railway opened the line from Nunhead to Crystal Palace High Level in 1865 to serve the Crystal Palace, which had been rebuilt on Sydenham Hill some ten years previously. Unfortunately the Crystal Palace was in decline as a visitor attraction by the end of the 19th century and this, coupled with the fact that the line passed through an area which was largely undeveloped well into the 20th century, meant that the line had very low passenger usage. It finally closed in 1954.
Once dismantling of the track had been completed, the entire railway land between Nunhead and Crystal Palace was bought by the London County Council who passed it on to local councils for housing and open space development. This was the origin of the attractive open space just behind where I am standing of Brenchley Gardens - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2636206
This view looks northwards along the embankment of the old track towards Nunhead. It is seen from Kelvington Road.

On the Nunhead Footpath
This ancient footpath runs from Brockley to Nunhead. This photo was taken on Merttins Road near the corner with Athenlay Road looking towards Brenchley Gardens. Near the centre of the picture can be seen the abutments for the old railway bridge that carried the line running to Crystal Palace High Level which closed in about 1953.
