Page "Brill railway station" Paragraph 10

Brill was a small town of 1, 400 people when the line opened, and owing to the town's hilltop setting the station was of a mile ( 1. 2 km ) from Brill itself.

Brill railway station was small, with a single low platform.

On its opening, there was one station building, which served as the freight depot, passenger terminal, and ticket office.

Next to it was a siding that led to a cattle pen.

After the 1899 transfer of services to the Metropolitan Railway, the MR introduced a single Brown Marshall passenger carriage on the line ; at this time, a small wooden hut was added to the station to serve as a ticket office and waiting room and a short section of platform was raised to conventional height to allow access to the higher doors on the new carriage.
