Save historically important 1841 Redhill locoshed from demolition

Petition Details

The original Redhill Station was built in 1841 by the London & Brighton Railway. The architecturally important Locomotive shed is due for demolition in mid 2018; this was approved on appeal and against local wishes. This is one of the earliest buildings in Redhill and deserves to be preserved.
