Summary[edit]

Description
English: Lower Edmonton (Low Level) railway station (site), Greater London
Opened in 1849 by the Eastern Counties Railway on its line from London to Enfield via (what is now) Angel Road, this station closed to passengers in 1939 and completely in 1964. The site has since been completely redeveloped. View south on the former trackbed from approximately the northern end of the platform, which would have been to the right of the image. The station building was roughly where the nearest of the modern buildings is, or just behind it. Beyond that, probably in the middle of the modern roundabout, was a level crossing. As railway passenger traffic diminished following the opening of the nearby high level station (Now Edmonton Green - see TQ3493 : Edmonton Green railway station, Greater London), a second platform was added in around 1900 to the south of the level crossing, meaning the gates could stay open for road traffic. The shopping centre in the distance is on the site of this c.1900 platform.
