ELTHAM WELL HALL
The replacement Eltham station in the distance.
(All 13.2.1985 copyright Steve Sainsbury/Rail Thing)
Eltham Well Hall station opened on 1 May 1895.
Eltham Well Hall was one of two Eltham stations (the other being Eltham Park) which were both closed on 17 March 1985 when the new Eltham station opened, slightly to the east of Eltham Well Hall.
Eltham Well Hall opened on 1 May 1895. There are no traces of the station left.
I visited the station just five weeks before closure on a bitterly cold day with snow on the ground. Work on the new station had progressed well, the new station being immediately to the east of Well Hall. Unfortunately no trains passed through whilst I was there!
