East Southsea was the name of two terminus railway stations of the 1.25 mile[1] Southsea Railway, which linked the Southsea seaside resort with the Portsmouth Direct Line at Fratton railway station.[2] The later 1904 station replaced an earlier, larger, grander station building, which opened as Southsea in 1885 and was renamed East Southsea in 1896.[3]
