Wood Green
Exterior of Wood Green station, Piccadilly Line, on 11th May 2021. This was opened with the first stage of the Cockfosters extension from Finsbury Park to Arnos Grove on 19th September 1932 and designed by Dr. Charles Holden (1875-1960), the Underground's Chief Architect between the two world wars. This, however, is where the money started to run out: the first two stations on the extension at Manor House and Turnpike Lane all had stairwell entrances to the street corners whereas Wood Green is boxed into a corner site without pedestrian subways to the other corners of the crossroads, on the north-east side of which it is situated.
