Hersham is a charming little station in Surrey, with views over fields, the River Mole and a local golf course. Opened in 1936, it provides services to London Waterloo and Woking to commuters based in Hersham itself - just under a mile to the south - and the southeast parts of Walton on Thames. The journey to Waterloo takes about 50 minutes. The heart of the town is Hersham Green, which hosts regular local events in the summer months, and is surrounded by local shops and a few pubs. The green rather sets the tone, as Hersham is surrounded by fields and meadows, with the River Mole weaving a path through them; it's a good starting point for riverside walks. In terms of rail trivia, Hersham has a rather royal ace up its sleeve: it was here that the young Queen Victoria saw her first steam train, an event she diligently recorded in her diary.

Station details & facilities

Hersham's small ticket office is at street level on Molesey Road, but its platforms are up on the railway bridge that runs over the road. Stairs by the ticket office lead up to platform 1, with a separate entrance on the other side of the bridge leading to platform 2. Both entrances have a ticket machine - a handy option, as the ticket office closes early on most days. To reach Hersham village, turn left out of the station.
