Barkingside Station (GPS: 51.58585, 0.0885) is a station of the London Underground. It is located in the London Borough of Redbridge. The station, which is in Travelcard Zone 4, is on the Hainault Loop. It is served by the Central Line between the Newbury Park Tube Station (heading towards Ealing Broadway/West Ruislip) and Fairlop Tube Station (heading towqrds Hainault/Woodford). The station is on ground level along Station Approach, the road that links to Crown Road the Carlton Drive in Barkingside.

The Barkingside Tube station was originally opened in 1903 for the Great Eastern Railway. Plan for it to be served by the Central Line goes back to 1935. However it was delayed by the outbreak of the Second World War, and the electrified Central Line only began serving this station from 1948.

The station building of Barkingside Tube Station is today a Grade II listed building, due to its architectural significance. It is a brick building with a cupola. Of interest is its hammerbeam roof at the ticket hall.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
