Description: | Northfields station opened in 1908. It was intended to serve a new housing estate at Little Ealing.
By 1911 further residential development had created a vast increase in passenger numbers. The station was replaced with this larger building and renamed Northfields & Little Ealing. This photograph, taken in 1927, shows the second station.
During the 1920s, new housing developments united the initially separate estates at Little Ealing, South Ealing and Northfields, so the Piccadilly line extended services to cope with demand. A new station was built on a more convenient site, and this one closed in 1932. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport Home and Family | Temporal: | Oct 1927 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
