Falconwood Station (provided by N Chadwick)
Falconwood station is served by the Bexleyheath Line: it is 10 miles 27 chains from Charing Cross. The station was opened much later than the remainder of the line, on 1 January 1936, to serve a growing area. A brick-built ticket office leads down to the cutting in which the station lies.
