PETERSFIELD railway station is one of the best in the country – and that's official!

An important gateway to South Downs National Park, bosses of the handsome railway station right on the edge of the town centre are celebrating after being highly commended in a national rail competition.

Manned by a team of five full and part-time staff, Petersfield was named medium-sized station of the year in the National Rail Awards.
