The station was opened with the line on 1 May 1895. The station is located just off Bellegrove Road (which becomes Welling High Street). This is one of the stations on the line with original buildings: the offices here are on the Up side of the station.
Trains run east from the station to Dartford, and west to London Charing Cross, London Victoria and Cannon Street station.The station and all trains are operated by Southeastern.
A campaign was fought in the summer of 2005 to sustain the direct service to Victoria via Peckham.
