The
railway first came to Horsham in 1848 at the end of a branch line
from Three Bridges. The main line from Victoria eventually
passed through Horsham in 1867 on its way south through
Billingshurst to reach the coast. The whole line was
electrified in 1938 and the present station buildings date from
this time.
On the
corner opposite the station are a group of 17th century cottages
which mark the edge of what was once common land. Some of
these cottages have been incorporated into the recent Park Mews
residential development.
