Answer: not three (Sydenham, Lower Sydenham, Sydenham Hill) but four if you count Upper Sydenham on the Crystal Palace High Level to Nunhead line closed in 1954. Four stations on four different lines that don't connect as they were built by different competing railway companies.The former Upper Sydenham ticket office complete with ghost sign is near the top of Wells Park Road after Longton Avenue:

wibbleIt's a warm day, relatively speaking, so for <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/TodaysWalk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#TodaysWalk</a> I wandered vaguely, looking for signs of spring beyond the usual explosion of bin-flies and the aroma of awakening drains.Somewhere in <a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/Sydenham" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Sydenham</a> a woodpecker rattled, but only once or twice, while on the borders of Dulwich a mimosa was blossoming and a pair of parakeets chewed over a property, presumably with an eye to moving in.

That might, in itself, have been a sign of something else. But I'd done more than enough of thinking by then, so flapped my hands at the little birds, did the thing with my arms at the squirrels, and went home for tea and biscuits.<a href="https://urbanists.social/tags/SouthEastLondon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SouthEastLondon</a>
