Beeches Halt was served by steam rail-motors (early multiple units) running between West Croydon and Epsom Downs.

As residential development continued, demand increased and the Sutton to London line was electrified in 1925 using 6600 V, 25 Hz AC, overhead electrification (OLE), replacing passenger steam traction.

At that time the halt was upgraded, a new station built, renamed Carshalton Beeches on 1 April 1925[5] and the road bridge was rebuilt.

The London Bus Route 154 serves the station; connects the area with Carshalton-on-the-Hill, South Beddington, St Helier Hospital, and Morden.

Set in the fine Beeches Avenue, this individually built suburban house offers the visitor some insight into the local Arts and Crafts movement at the turn of the early 20th century.
