Opened in 1890 by the London & North Western Railway as the terminus of its short branch line from Harrow & Wealdstone, this station closed to passengers in 1952 and completely in 1964. View south east at the forecourt. Originally the building was designed to look like a village church with a tower on the left hand side, and has been much altered - only the lower windows and door are recognisable in old photographs. The platform was end-on to the right of the building. For more information, see http://www.disused-stations.org.uk/s/stanmore_village/index.shtml.
