Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Remains of Gravesend West Station’s pier
The branch railway from Farningham Road was opened on 10 May 1886, closed to passengers on 3 August 1953 and closed completely on 25 August 1968. The majority of the station was demolished in 1991 but the pier with its covered way, West Street bridge and a short section of platform survived until September 2006, when the remaining section of viaduct and the bridge over West Street were demolished. This view was taken from the top of a wall at Baltic Wharf.
