Opened in 1888 as West End Lane by the Hampstead Junction Railway on the line from Dalston to Willesden, this station only changed its name to West Hampstead in 1975. View east towards Finchley Road & Frognall and Dalston, shortly after it had been substantially built. Compared with Image, the platform is wider and a new footbridge and station building have been erected. The 1888 station building was still extant but no longer connected directly to the platforms.
