Uncompleted design for a new station quasi-Italianate building with a picturesque campanile at London Bridge were drawn up, designed jointly by Lewis Cubitt, John Urpeth Rastrick and Henry Roberts. The main line station is the oldest railway station in London and one of the oldest in the world having opened in 1836. Opened by the London and Greenwich Railway as a local service, it subsequently served the London and Croydon Railway, the London and Brighton Railway and the South Eastern Railway, thus becoming an important London terminus.
