The
first section of the London & Greenwich
Railway was opened in 1836. However, it was not until December,
1838 that the whole line was finished. Built on a viaduct consisting
of 978 arches, the line ran from Greenwich to London Bridge. The station
was designed by Thomas Turner and Henry Roberts and later it became
the administrative headquarters of the London
& Brighton Railway.
