Streatham Hill
The rather quaint street level building to Streatham Hill station, south London, in pouring rain on the afternoon of Saturday, 19th February 2022. This station was opened as Streatham by the West End of London & Crystal Palace Railway in 1865 with the service being provided by the London, Brighton & South Coast Railway. It was renamed Streatham & Brixton Hill in 1868 and finally to Streatham Hill the following year. In 1911, the LBSCR electrified the line on the overhead wire system but this was replaced with third rails by the Southern Railway in 1928.
