Northwood Hills is a London Underground station on the Metropolitan line in the area of Northwood, between Northwood and Pinner stations and is in Travelcard Zone 6.

History[]

The station opened on 13 November 1933. There was a competition for the name and Northwood Hills, suggested by a woman from North Harrow was the winning entry. The area is lower than Northwood, despite the name.[5]

In the southbound direction off-peak services generally run 4tph to Baker Street and 4tph to Aldgate.
