The first station, opened by the West End of London and Crystal Palace Railway, was on the line between Pimlico and New Wandsworth stations, located just south of the bridge under the LSWR lines.[1] It was opened on 29 Mar 1858[2] or 29 May 1858[3] and closed on 1 December 1858.[2][3]
The second station was later used by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway and located between Victoria and Wandsworth Road. This station was opened on 1 May 1863 and closed on 1 January 1867. It was located south of the previous station, at the end of Corunna Road (now Corunna Terrace).[4] It had two staggered platforms; from the footbridge that joined them, the eastern platform reached north, and the western platform south.[5]
