Line	Location	Opening date	number of platforms
Lewisham	cutting	20th November 1999	2

Mudchute station is at the northern end of the Lewisham extension—on leaving the station, southbound trains enter the tunnel which takes them through Island Gardens and under the River Thames.

This is the second station at this location. The original station opened in 1987, and closed in January 1999 to make way for the new station. No trace remains of the original station. The first station was to have been named Millwall Park, but this was changed to avoid confusion with Millwall Football Club's ground which moved south of the river in 1910.
