Description
The ramp at Deptford Railway Station, built in 1856 by engineer Colonel Lordmann, is a dog leg structure made up of a series of brick arches that rise from Deptford High Street to the level of the tracks. This ramp was constructed to facilitate the movement of rolling stock and allow carriages to access the station. It serves as a significant historical remnant of London's first railway, which opened on 8 February 1836 as the London and Greenwich Railway. This ramp is the only surviving example of three originally built, making it the earliest, with the others located at London Bridge and Greenwich.
