Reedham Railway Station Car Park on Old Lodge Lane
The station car park is operated by Croydon Council and is at Reedham CR8 4DG, matching the station address at 15 Old Lodge Lane. It provides 53 spaces and is open 24 hours, giving drivers the option of arriving before an early train or returning late in the evening (croydon.gov.uk).
Charges apply Monday to Sunday, all day, with the council listing tariffs of £4.20, £4.76 and £5.60 (croydon.gov.uk). The station car park is the most direct choice for drivers who want to leave the car beside the platforms, rather than walk from a residential street or a private space.
Parking Controls Around Reedham Railway Station
Drivers using the council car park should follow the payment and parking conditions displayed for the site, because Croydon Council identifies the location as a charged car park rather than free parking (croydon.gov.uk). The council lists the car park as open 24 hours, while charges apply throughout the day from Monday to Sunday (croydon.gov.uk).
The station is in Purley, close to the A23 Brighton Road, and parking information for the area includes a pay-or-appeal parking-charge route through NCP (ncp.co.uk). This makes the council car park a more straightforward option than leaving a vehicle in an unmarked nearby location, particularly for a full working day.
Commuter Parking at the Station
The 53-space car park is open 24 hours, so it supports early departures, late arrivals and irregular shifts as well as standard weekday commuting (croydon.gov.uk). The council lists charges for every day of the week, all day, rather than limiting payment to weekday peak periods (croydon.gov.uk).
There is no season-ticket, permit or pre-booking option identified in the council listing. For a commuter who needs a more predictable arrangement, a monthly private space nearby can be more suitable than relying on a space being available at the start of each morning. Drivers changing trains or carrying luggage may also value the station car park's step-free route to Platform 1, although Platform 2 does not have step-free access from the car park (southeasternrailway.co.uk).
