Lewisham Road railway station
Place
Lewisham Road was a railway station in Lewisham, south-east London, opened in 1871 by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway (LCDR) on a branch line from Nunhead to Greenwich Park.It was situated on Loampit Hill, very close to the present-day St. Johns station. Although the branch line was intended to rival the South Eastern Railway's line through Greenwich it was probably the competition from this which contributed to the low use of the LCDR's branch, which closed in 1917 as a wartime economy measure.
