London, Brighton and South Coast Railway War Memorial
The London, Brighton and South Coast Railway War Memorial is a war memorial in London Bridge Station that honours the employees of the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway who fought in the First and Second World Wars. Originally set in a brick wall,[1] it was unveiled in 1922.[2] It was framed with flat contemporary cladding panels when the station was redeveloped in the 2010s.[1]
This memorial is one of three erected by the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway, with the other two installed in Brighton train station and London Victoria train station.
