Clapham Junction railway station

One of the busiest stations in the UK.

The station links with two London termini - Waterloo and Victoria, and dates from 1838. The area was previously agricultural (with lavender growing being a speciality - hence the street name Lavender Hill): it is also the southern terminus of the London Overground East London Line.

One peculiarity of the station is that there is no Platform 1.

Many buses stop at the station.
