Former route of the railway from Nunhead to Greenwich Park station. This opened in 1888 and closed in 1917 as a WW1 economy measure - most passengers had changed over to local tram services. In 1929 the Southern Railway diverted the line into Lewisham, and it has remained open ever since.

Where Brookmill / Ravensbourne Park is today. At the time of this picture this was largely a recreation ground but was also the site of Emmanuel Church, destroyed in 1940.
