Deptford Station, opened 8th February 1836, London's oldest working railway station.
August 2019: We were informed by Ste Ríkharðsson via Facebook that the plaque went missing following the renovation of the station in 2012. We are lucky we'd captured it just the year before.
SE8, Deptford High Street
