Brighton, looking north from the concourse, at mid-day on 14th June 2021. This station started out with a short line running west along the coast to Shoreham-by-Sea in 1840, which is now part of the much-extended South Coastway Line. The station was designed by London-born architect David Mocatta (1806-1882) and completed on 21st September 1841 with the final extension of the main line from London from a temporary terminus at Haywards Heath. The line to Lewes, including the magnificent London Road viaduct, was opened in 1846.
