Noel Park and Wood Green is a closed railway station on the Palace Gates LineinWood Green, north London. It was located on the north-east side of The Broadway adjacent to Pelham Road. Its site is now occupied by Wood Green Shopping City.
The station was opened by the Great Eastern RailwayasGreen Lanes on 1 January 1878, as the temporary terminus of the line, which was extended to Palace Gates (Wood Green) station on 7 October 1878.
In 1884, as work began on the large Noel Park housing estate nearby, the station name was changed to Green Lanes & Noel Park; it was given its final name in 1902.
Competing as it did with other nearby railway lines and the London Underground's Piccadilly line, the Palace Gates line was unprofitable; the line and the station were closed for passenger services on 7 January 1963,[1] and for freight on 7 December 1964.[2] Following closure, the embankment that housed the station and the bridge over The Broadway was removed. Nothing is left of the station.
