Hampstead
Exterior of Hampstead station, LUL Northern Line, originally to have been called Heath Street, seen here on 22nd June 2021, the 114th Anniversary of its opening as part of the Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway. The Heath Street side on the left is now used for exit only with passengers entering from the Hampstead High Street side on the right and with its platforms 192 ft. below the ground, reached via lifts, this is the deepest station on the London Underground. It is another of the splendid deep-level 'tube' stations in ox blood red designed by Leslie W. Green, the Underground's Chief Architect of the Edwardian era who died in 1908, aged only 34.
