Description
Surbiton Station, built in 1937 by the Southern Railways Architects' Department under J R Scott, is a Grade II listed building. The station is constructed of painted reinforced concrete and features a flat roof. It has a central tall single-storey booking hall with four bays, flanked by low, narrow bays that contain kiosks, which curve backwards to meet long, low wings. A continuous cantilevered concrete canopy extends over the centre and wings, with a moulded edge. To the left, there is a clock tower with a strong but narrow cornice and horizontal strings on the upper, set-back section. The booking hall is adorned with long square-headed windows that have narrow closely spaced mullions. The original wood and bronze doors are located below the long narrow windows, which are protected by triple bronze bars. The central fascia of the canopy displays "Surbiton" in sans serif capitals. Inside, the booking hall is lined with marble. Additionally, there are two long single-storey buildings remaining on the platforms, also made of reinforced concrete, featuring rounded ends and horizontal glazing bars on the windows. These buildings were designed to house offices, lavatories, and waiting rooms.
