The station building on Ditchling Rise in 2007

London Road (Brighton) railway station is a railway station located in Round Hill, an inner suburb of Brighton in East Sussex. It is the first intermediate station on the Brighton branch of the East Coastway Line, 57 chains (1.1 km) down the line from Brighton station. The station is managed by Southern, who operate all services on the line.

Despite its name, the station is not located on London Road, which passes some 400 yards (370 m) southwest of the station and bears the name Preston Road at the nearest point.

History

London Road (Brighton) station was designed by David Mocatta (the designer of Brighton station) and opened on 1 October 1877, following housing development in the surrounding area. It was originally to be called Ditchling Rise, a more accurate name as London Road is 370m southwest. Until the Kemp Town branch line closed in 1971, trains to Kemp Town diverged from the Brighton – Lewes line here.

The building on platform 2 (Lewes bound) was demolished in the early 1980s. The station had a substantial refurbishment at the end of 2004 with some add-on parts to the original building demolished.

The station has been home to the Brighton Model Railway Club since 1971.[1]
