Archway
Entrance to Archway station, LU Northern Line, on the afternoon of Saturday, 4th November 2023. This originally opened as Highgate, the terminus of a branch of the Charing Cross, Euston & Hampstead Railway from Camden Town, on 22nd June 1907. The original entrance was designed by Leslie W. Green (1874-1908) but this was replaced by the present building, alas, sometime in the 1970s. Inside, however, the station still oozes plenty of Edwardian atmosphere. It was renamed Archway (Highgate) on 11th June 1939 just before the line was extended to East Finchley on 3rd July that year, further renamed Highgate (Archway) on 19th January 1941 and then to simply Archway on an unspecified day in December 1947.
