Earlsfield station
This is the view from a temporary footbridge linking the platforms whilst the main entrance was closed and looks towards Wimbledon. The station was opened by the London & South Western Railway and the name 'Earlsfield' originated from the name of the large Victorian residence which was on the present site of the station. When the site was sold by the Davis family to the railway company, one of the conditions of sale was that the station would be called 'Earlsfield'.
