The Leytonstone Tube Station is on the northeastern part of Greater London. It is located off Church Lane, close to the A12 Motorway. It is at Travelcard Zones 3 and 4.
The Leytonstone Tube Station first opened in 1856, for the Eastern Counties Railway. It was first served by the Central Line of 5 May, 1947, at that time serving as the temporary terminus until the line was extended to Woodford and Newbury Park.
The station carries a series of mosaics that document the life and works of famous movie director Alfred Hitchcock. The artwork was created to commemorate the centenary of Hitchcock's birth on 13 August, 1899. It was unveiled on 3 May, 2011.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
