The eastbound platform is directly linked by ramp and stairway to Morden Road. The town centre of Morden lies 0.5 mi (0.80 km) to the south. A pedestrian entrance to the National Trust's Morden Hall Park is on Morden Road just to the south of the stop.
The stop is interlinked as an out of station interchange (OSI) with South Wimbledon on the London Underground's Northern line. The two stations are classed as an interchange for ticketing purposes but both managed separately.
