Battersea Park railway station
Opened in 1867, Battersea Park station has been Grade II listed since 1983.
Originally named York Road (Battersea), it wasn’t called Battersea Park until 1885, and one of its platforms is made entirely of wood.
One of London’s oldest 'suburban' stations, Battersea Park was built to ease congestion at nearby Stewarts Lane. You still reach the platforms by steep wooden staircases, just as Victorians did.
