Frant railway station is on the Hastings line in East Sussex, England, and serves the civil parish of Frant (although the station is actually located some 2abbr=onNaNabbr=on from the village of that name, in the hamlet of Bells Yew Green).[1] It is 36chain53chain down the line from London Charing Cross. The station and all trains serving it are operated by Southeastern.
It is also the nearest station to the Kentish village of Lamberhurst, 7abbr=onNaNabbr=on away: an infrequent bus service (four to five journeys each way on Mondays to Saturdays) links Frant station with Lamberhurst.
The station was opened by the South Eastern Railway (SER) at the same time as the route, in 1851, and the original station building, which is situated on the Down (eastern) side of the line, remains in use. Designed by the company's architect, William Tress, and built of local ragstone in a Gothic lodge style, with a canopy added in 1905, it has been a Grade II listed building since 1982. The platforms are staggered: a common arrangement at early SER stations which allowed passengers to cross the line in relative safety behind two trains stopped at the station, although today the platforms are connected by a footbridge. From the 1960s until 1986, the station was served only at peak times on week days. However, since 1986, when the line was electrified, it has been served seven days a week.
All services at Frant are operated by Southeastern using EMUs.
