101. Railway footbridge at Bexhill-on-Sea.
According to Wikipedia, this station is a grade II listed building, which was opened in 1846. For such a station, it is incredible that the designer had the foresight to include « Step free access via long steep ramps (over 400m/gradient above 1:10). »
The station had a moment of glory in December 1911, when the platform was especially lengthened for the funeral train of Nripendra Narayan, the Maharaja of Cooch Behar in India. Consequently it had, for many years, the longest platform in England outside London.
