Notes / History | The station opened with the Peckham Rye - Sutton Line on 1st October 1868. The top-hatted station master poses with his station and outdoor staff, probably in the 1880s. The covering of sleepers was eventually outlawed owing to the dangers that could be hidden. The picture was taken looking towards Morden and Wimbledon, showing the Carshalton Road bridge across the tracks. |
