Description

Denmark Hill railway station is in the London Borough of Southwark in London, England, on the South London and East London lines. It is managed by Thameslink and is served by trains of that company, Southeastern, and London Overground. It is in Travelcard Zone 2. It is on Champion Park in the south of Camberwell. It is near to King's College and Maudsley hospitals and to the Denmark Hill campus of King's College London, whose buildings are intermingled around and between the two hospitals. It is mostly served by local trains on the London Overground and trains from two London termini: Victoria and Blackfriars. As of August 2013 the station is fully accessible with lifts to all the platforms.
The platforms are below road level, with the short Grove Tunnel at one end and Denmark Hill road bridge at the other.
The station was built in 1865. Its design is in the Italianate style, with an extremely decorative frontage and French pavilion roofs. After a fire in 1980 the building was renovated and restored. The project included the addition of a public house, initially called the Phoenix and Firkin to commemorate the fire. A Civic Trust award was given to the building in 2009.
On 4 December 2014, a fire under a train forced the closure of Denmark Hill for a few hours on that night as flames were spotted underneath a Southeastern train travelling from Victoria to Dartford train service at the station.
In the period 2011-2013 the station underwent a redesign with the construction of a new ticket office with access from Champion Park, new walkways and lifts to the platforms.
