Clapham High Street railway station is on the South London line in Clapham, within the London Borough of Lambeth, Greater London. It is 6 miles 21 chains (10.1 km) measured from London Bridge (the former LC&DR platforms also being 2 miles 25 chains (3.7 km) measured from London Victoria).[3] It is served by London Overground services between Clapham Junction and Dalston Junction, with a limited service to Battersea Park. Southeastern services from Lewisham pass through the station, however proposals to call at the station have been limited by the age of Southeastern’s rolling stock.

It is close to Clapham North tube station, and interchange between the two is counted as an Out of Station Interchange on Oyster, so that users are charged for only one journey, rather than two separate journeys.[4]
