Westhumble Railway Station

The shot shows how the original station was built with typical Victorian in 1867. It was built at the insistence of Thomas Grissell who owned Norbury Park and the railway line crossed his land. He also retained the right to flag down and board any train passing through the station even if it was not scheduled to stop at Box hill and Westhumble.
