Tadworth Station

Submitted by Dr Neil Clifton
Name Tadworth Station
Distance 0.11 miles from KT20 5DB
Description The branch line from Purley to Tadworth was opened on 1 July 1900 in what was then a very sparsely-populated area. Extension to Tattenham Corner followed in 1901 and the branch became immediately popular with racegoers and also for excursions to the countryside hereabouts. Electrification took place in March 1928 on the third-rail system. The buildings shown here are not now in railway use, nor have been for many years. Sadly there has been vandalism with broken windows etc.
