Photograph at the Battle Station blue plaque

Battle Station Battle Station was designed for the South Eastern Railway by William Tress and opened in 1852 following the completion of the line linking Tonbridge and Hastings. The architectural style of the building was influenced by the nearby Benedictine abbey and it is considered one of the finest examples of Gothic Revival small stations in England. A major restoration of the roof and chimneys was completed in 2019. The station is Grade Il listed.
